Add to basketPaperback. Get exact information on 24 common disorders and how communication can be negatively impacted. Resources abound on the nature of disorders such as Autism and Down Syndrome. However, how do we help these individuals communicate more effectively and where do we find resources to learn more? Within this book, each communication disorder is described by the definition, description, characteristics, causes, implications for treatment, and additional resources, such as support groups, books, websites and additional sources for finding out more to best support individuals who struggle communicating. Supporting individuals with communication disorders and related conditions involves a coordinated team of people that can include family, professionals, educators and other community members. Whether seeking support for adults or children with communication disorders, ensuring everyone involved is as knowledgeable as possible is key to providing support to the individual and their family. This resource serves to be a guide to do just that. Communication disorders are some of the most common disabilities in the United States, affecting both children and adults. This book came together as part of a project to create a resource for graduate students and speech-language pathologists new to the field on the wide range of communication disorders that exist. We have found that it has become a valued resource for many educators and family members of those with communication disorders as well. In this book, we provide a wealth of information about specific disorders in an easily accessible format. The collaborative efforts of our group of speech-language pathologists over the past three years have grown the project's resources into this book including, information on 24 communication disorders and related conditions. Our hope is to inform, educate and aid individuals with communication disorders, their families, and the people who work with them so they may receive impactful support and treatment. Knowledge is power! Who can benefit from using this book? Individuals seeking treatment and support for communication disorders and related conditions can use this book to become more informed about their condition and relevant resources. Parents and families supporting those with communication disorders can learn more about a specific condition and share information with those around them to become advocates for their loved ones. When caregivers have the information and education they need, they can more easily develop a positive outlook and provide better support for their family. Speech-language pathologists, educators, medical professionals, school personnel, social workers, and other professionals providing related support can find this book helpful in gaining additional knowledge, not only regarding the condition, but also the implications that communication deficits will have on the clients they serve. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
