Non-profit organization, funded by your donations
Pictalk AAC is a communication application that uses pictograms and other content to help people who have difficulties communicating.
Pictalk AAC is useful for people with communication disorders, whether from birth (such as Trisomy 21, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Angelman syndrome) or due to an event occurring later (stroke, accidents, neurodegenerative diseases).
No, AAC supports language development. It helps reduce frustrations by providing a means of communication even before the person speaks.
The Pictalk AAC application allows communication, while the website presents all the projects we have developed. We kept the application’s name because that's where it all started.
Every parent understands their child, but it is essential that your child can also communicate with others, such as at school. Pictalk AAC helps your child open up to the world and make themselves understood.
From the beginning, we have designed the application based on extensive feedback from our professional and parent users. We understand the problems related to funding, lack of training on AAC, and especially lack of time and energy. Pictalk AAC will save you time and conserve your energy.
