"Writers of colour are no longer going to be silenced or afraid to discuss disproportions. You belong to a canon & a history founded on erasures & exploitation, so the time to reform these discrepancies is precious." to Denis Haskell & Kieran Dolin🔥👍🏽#Interceptionality

Excellent systematic review from @MoorcroftAlison and colleagues @UQ_CDC reiterating the importance of environmental and personnel supports for successful low-tech/unaided #augcomm use.
NEW SYSTEMATIC REVIEW: There are numerous environmental and personal barriers to the provision and use of low-tech and unaided AAC systems that may contribute to the under-use of these systems #AugComm #WHOICF @UQ_CDC tandfonline.com/eprint/7mcpm…

Such an amazing conference #ISAAC2018! I am always a bit proud to be Australian in the AAC community. There are many great people working tirelessly, beside me, to just make our lives better and a bit easier. With president @MeredithAllan, #isaac2020 will be equally brilliant!

If Stephen Hawking had been born with his disability he would have had to fight for an education, his frustration would have been interpreted as challenging behaviour and his life would have been at the mercy of an NDIS planner! @MeredithAllan #isaac2018
Powerful session on mental health and well-being! Every teen young adult, parent, professional and #everyone needs the resources being shared. #ISAAAC2018 seek the presentation resources once they’re available. – at Gold Coast, Queensland
