Finding Noah's Voice with Noah Seback

Join Dr. Holmes as she interviews the Seback family. We discuss Noah's journey in finding his voice as a non-speaker through letterboard.About Noah, from his site https://quirkthrives.com/our-teamNoah SebackNonspeaking Autistic, Lived Experience Expert, Self AdvocateNoah’s differences have been considered deficits his entire life. His humanity & potential have been questioned & underestimated. His qUirk was an obstacle to thriving. No more. Through spelling on a letterboard with a communication regulation partner, he has gained a voice. He is now able to speak into his own life & wellbeing. He has collaborated with others to strategize & authentically address his greatest challenges: extreme body dysregulation & the traumatizing label of ‘behavior problem’, ingrained motor loops, severe inflexibility, debilitating movement motor/sensory/emotional differences. His passion is that all nonspeakers move from just surviving to thriving. Using his lived experience he seeks to partner with nonspeakers & their allies to that end. qUirk can thrive.MAGAZINE ARTICLESExceptional Needs Today (Page 38), "Let NonSpeakers 'Speak' into Their Own Lives"Autism Parenting Magazine, "Noah’s Voice: Non-Speaking Man Advocates for Big Changes"CONFERENCESI-ASC Motormorphisis Picnic 2021Innovations in Education for Students with Sensory Movement Differences 2018Supporting Quirky Bodies and Intelligent Minds in the Classroom
