“Virtual Connections is a free program that offers daily Zoom calls for people with aphasia and caregivers. Sessions focus on conversation, social connection, and quality of life. Sessions are hosted by speech pathologists, music therapists, rehab professionals, and aphasia experts. Session topics include travel, hobbies, book clubs, food, holidays, music, and more! We know you’ll find something you love. Virtual Connections is not a speech therapy program, but rather virtual conversation and support groups for people with aphasia and caregivers”, as noted on the site. This amazing resource was shared with us by longtime friend of the Speak Easy support group for survivors of stroke and TBI, April W. Garrity, PhD, CCC-SLP, CDP.
The collaborative partners of Lingraphica and Aphasia Recovery Connection have created this virtual place for people with aphasia to be able to connect.
Virtual Connections’ mission is to bring people living with aphasia together from all over the world. We are committed to improving quality of life while eliminating isolation by providing social connection, support, and educational experiences.
