If you love to explore the world and miss traveling, join our virtual travel conversation group Journey Through Speech. This peer-led conversation group meets once a month to discuss all things related to travel and culture. In this aphasia-friendly space, we will be sharing our travel experiences, exploring a variety of cultures, discussing places we have been and want to go, exchanging travel tips, and much more. This group is advised by Craig Smith and Genevieve Richardson (Founder of LIFE Speech Pathology).

This inclusive, aphasia-friendly group discusses a wide range of topics, including sharing tips and some of the challenges faced living while Black and struck by an invisible, severely underknown disability called aphasia.  We welcome all who acknowledge the existence of the unique challenges each quality poses and support the mission of creating an emotional refuge for Black people living with aphasia.

Join us for an evening support group for communication and care partners of people with primary progressive aphasia and primary progressive apraxia of speech (PPA/PPAOS). This is a space for care partners, family, and friends of people with PPA/PPAOS to find community with one another. Hosted virtually via Zoom by the National Aphasia Association.

Parenting is no easy feat but can be particularly challenging when one parent has aphasia. Parenting with Aphasia meets virtually once a month, inviting parents with kids of all ages to join together in a safe, non-judgmental space to share experiences, receive positive peer support, and learn more about how other parents are navigating the highs and lows of modern-day parenting when aphasia is along for the ride.
