沟通之旅：失语症 (CJA) is a vocabulary file containing features designed to support people with aphasia. It was developed by Lois Turner (SLP), Anne MacCullum (SLP), and Sarah Douglas (SLP Assistant) in consultation with a group of speech-language pathologists who work exclusively with people with aphasia and brain injuries. Designed for individuals with aphasia, this is a simple page set that incorporates 12-15 button pages and visual scenes for clocks, schedules, body, maps, and much more.

Aphasia, a disorder caused by damage to the parts of the brain where language is stored, may affect the ability to comprehend language, to express oneself, to read, or to spell and write. This file can easily be adapted for use by people with different types of aphasia and a range of cognitive levels and degrees of severity.

Although this vocabulary file contains starting-point vocabulary commonly required by adults with aphasia, it MUST be customized. Each person has a unique history and the file must reflect their lives, experiences and abilities.
