“A Mother’s Awakening”

(My experience after attending a 3-day Outreach Workshop on Spelling to Communicate with Elizabeth Vosseller, Growing Kids Therapy Center. With the hope of helping my minimally speaking 15-year-old Autistic boy learn to communicate through spelling with letterboards and lots of support.)

What Matthew was able to express by using letter boards was truly an eye-opening experience for me; one that makes me see him in a different light.
