Everyone Has A Seat At The Table CANVAS Print

Flipping the narrative on a scene where those with alternative communication styles or needs are often left behind or forgotten. Everyone having a seat at the table is about just that, everyone having a chance to be heard however that looks like for them. Whether like the deaf young man communicating with Auslan (Australian Sign langauge) or the woman with a speech impairment next to him who needs more time to get her words out. The blind young man with his guide dog who needs his name to be called to know he’s being spoken to directly. And the young woman using an AAC device (Augmentative and Alternative Communication,) The device uses a visual language system with symbols, pictures, or typed text she can tap to create spoken messages. They have a voice worth listening to, take the time to understand what they need to be heard.
