Adult Autism and Communication

In this episode, we welcome Nathan Wood, M.S., CCC-SLP, to the podcast! Nathan is a speech-language pathologist whose passion for individuals with ASD shines through in his work and our discussion with him. The moms discuss communication with Nathan, focusing on communication that assists individuals with minimal or no verbal communication. Nathan educates us on current speech pathologist practices and the why behind them. He also explains Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) devices and how they can assist in communication. Nathan is a breath of fresh air for all families that have experienced the disability cliff after high school completion. Join us for this informative episode that offers hope and encouragement to never give up on communication even in adulthood.
