“AAC is not a last resort but rather a first line of intervention that can provide a firm foundation for the development of spoken language comprehension and production. It can set the stage for further language and communication development during the child’s preschool and early school years. It also can open the door for the child’s overall developmental progression.”
MaryAnn Romski, 2005
