Greetings!

We still have spots available this summer in the following programs. Whether you’re already signed up for group(s) this summer and want to switch, add one, or maybe you are joining at the tail end of the registration process, we have some opportunities for you!


5 week programs beginning the week of June 22nd:

1. A Social AAC Group- Mondays from 2-3PM $150- Calling all AAC users: come hang out with other device users and show off your personality! Speech students will be in the group to aid AAC users in efficient, effective, and personalized use of their communication system. Participants of all stages of AAC use are welcome (whether you just got your device or have been using it for multiple decades).

2. Multimodal Narratives- Wednesdays from 2-3PM $180- In this group, all communication styles and modalities are welcome, as participants create a cumulative “portfolio" about their lives, special interests, or strengths. Speech students will aid participants in crafting their narratives. Examples of “portfolios” include: a newsletter, a music playlist, a poster, a PowerPoint, a poem, a script, etc.

5 week programs beginning the week of June 29th:

1. Improv & Acting- Thursdays from 1:00-2:30PM $175- with support from a professional actor, individuals will engage in games and activities to demonstrate components of acting including improvisation, voice acting and more.
