Thanks to Dr. Audrey Holland for coming to talk to @PittCSD grad #SLP students about #aphasia last week! Key points from our discussion: 1)Get PWA connected to other PWA! Community provides support and models growth and recovery in a way clinicians cannot.

One way to provide confidence and help recovering from a terrible #stroke, #aphasia, etc. is to join an aphasia book club. An ideal setting to rebuild your communication and language skills. Check it out... #aphasiabooks #bookclubs #recovery #nevergiveup thriveglobal.com/stories/5-w…

Love @BrianneKosch's comments. Individuals with aphasia and their care partners are experts too. They LIVE with it! Project BRIDGE brought ALL the experts to the table! People with aphasia, rehab experts, caregivers, researchers, & more! TY @JackieHinckley - a trailblazer!

A $1m donation to #UQ will offer hope to thousands of Australians who can't communicate following a stroke. The funding will support research into aphasia – which occurs in one-third of all strokes - and fund the first aphasia rehab centre. @UQHealth tinyurl.com/yyxn2tgu
