Communication is a basic human right, a need and a critical part
of learning. These systems supplement or support the spoken
element in communication. There are different vocabularies and
languages to choose from, so the individual can use the most
appropriate system. Communication passports offer a simple
practical guide about the non-verbal child, so people can
quickly understand their needs. Scope's No Voice, No Choice
reports look at the experiences of disabled people who use
Alternative and Augmentative Communication (AAC), their families
and the professionals who work with them. They also talk about
what the Government need to do improve communication support in
the future.
