SLP STAFF, SPECIAL EDUCATORS, AND PARENTS!
The Tennessee Talks project remains operational and is now scheduling consultations to help you provide the best support to your students with special needs while in their homes.
Do you have questions about addressing a student’s assistive technology/communication needs during these school closures? Questions about an interrupted AAC assessment or plan of care? Want 1:1 training or assistance for a specific program or device? Need ideas for providing adapted materials for non-verbal students’ use at home, or maybe just need help figuring out your next steps? Make an appointment for a phone consultation or video conference session today!
