I-ASC is an association composed of members from the nonspeaking, neurodiverse and disability communities; their families; and trained professionals. I-ASC is committed to ensuring access to effective communication that supports agency and autonomy for nonspeaking, minimally and unreliably speaking individuals.
The mission of I-ASC is to advance communication access for nonspeaking individuals globally through training, education, advocacy and research.
I-ASC supports all forms of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) with a focus on methods of spelling and typing. I-ASC currently offers Practitioner training in Spelling to Communicate (S2C) with the hope that other methods of AAC using spelling or typing will join our association.
I-ASC is guided by the lived experiences and expertise of our community.
