Empowering Adults with Communication Impairments
The Thames Valley Communication Access Program (TVCAP) empowers adults with acquired communication impairments to achieve optimal communication, fostering independence through group therapy services, education, and advocacy. Serving the Thames Valley region in Southwestern Ontario.
What is a Communication Impairment?
Communication is an exchange of ideas between two or more people. It is a dynamic dance of receiving information (listening to speech, watching body language, reading, looking at visuals, etc) and giving information (speaking, body language & gestures, writing, drawing, and using props).
Having a communication impairment means that a person has a breakdown in their ability to receive or give information. For example, if someone experiences a stroke and loses their ability to talk.
After acquiring a communication impairment, a person could benefit from speech therapy to help improve skills and/or find new ways of communicating.
Communication Access strategies refer to ways the person with the communication impairment and their communication partner give and receive information.
