family members, and co-workers understand how aphasia affects
their daily lives.

"voice" through their participation in program planning and by
membership on the Aphasia Center of California's governing Board
of Directors.

studies which demonstrate treatment efficacy and effectiveness.
Our research findings appear in peer-reviewed
professional journals and have been presented at numerous scientific
meetings.
