What 50 People with Aphasia Want You To Know

Aphasia Recovery Connection Director Carol recently did a Zoom call with 50 people with aphasia from around the world. Some were stroke survivors. Others with brain injuries. And others had with PPA, Primary Progressive Aphasia.
They wanted to share their own insight into aphasia with the current media mix. We offered to take notes and bring their own message to you.
Carol took notes and presents the information as it was shared in the order they shared it.
Be sure to get to the end - when they share their feelings about aphasia. How they feel treated. And what they need from others.
"Nothing about us, without us."
Empowering people with aphasia to have a voice.

Thank you for sharing this. My cousin recently got aphasia and I’m looking for ways to communicate with her.
