There’s more than one way to use AAC

AAC doesn’t look the same for everyone.

Some people use AAC every once in a while: to say “I love you,” order takeout, or communicate during an emergency.

Others use it every day to practice their speech, participate in work or hobbies, tell stories, advocate for themselves, and stay connected with loved ones.

See what AAC makes possible in the everyday lives of real Lingraphica device users.

Whether you’re exploring AAC for yourself, a loved one, or a patient, these stories can help you picture where AAC might fit into everyday life.
