InterAACt and Aphasia

Language is the foundation of communication and expression. In order to be truly useful and meaningful, language must have a framework and structure. It must be more than a random collection of words and phrases. It must be appropriate for the communicator, meaningful to the recipient and relevant to the environment within which the communication is occurring. It is because of this principle that DynaVox created the InterAACt language framework.

InterAACt is...

Real-life communication - Individuals can communicate right away in any situation. InterAACt is a collection of communication pages, vocabulary and symbols that allows children with autism to successfully communicate in everyday activities like:

Working from home

Playing cards

Going to the doctor

Attending a baseball game

Flexible - Communication needs are met right away in any situation. With InterAACt, adults practice their understanding of language and re-learn words every day. As their re-learning of language and literacy grows, the DynaVox will grow with them.

Efficient and precise - Say it quickly and say it in your own words. InterAACt provides the words and messages adults need in order to keep up with conversations. These features of InterAACt allow adults with communication need to expand their social circle, something that may be difficult without support, and enjoy a quality of life.

Familiar and natural - Language is presented in a familiar format that makes current communication skills more effective using real words for everyday environments. InterAACt is easy to use and adults will quickly be able to practice speech while they use it.
