🧡 Happy Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) Awareness Month! 💙

Everyone deserves a voice and the opportunity to communicate!

AAC Awareness Month celebrates the many ways individuals communicate beyond spoken words. From communication boards and picture symbols to speech-generating devices, AAC provides children with tools to express their thoughts, share their ideas, build relationships, and participate more fully in the world around them.

Let's celebrate all forms of communication and continue working together to create inclusive environments where every voice is heard, valued, and respected!

Every voice matters. Every way of communicating counts! 🧡

Our Trick-or-Treat event held last week was full of Halloween fun! We loved seeing all the little ghosts, goblins, superheroes, and princesses dressed up in their creative costumes and enjoying some Halloween activities and treats 🍬🍭
Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the event such a fun and memorable experience for the kids. We're already looking forward to more Halloween fun next year!
We hope that everyone has a safe and happy Halloween! 🎃

Some GJCC clients spent Monday's PA day climbing at the Rock Room.
The staff were so accommodating and understanding. The kids loved climbing, and there were definitely some great little climbers in the group!
A big thank you to the Rock Room for having us, and teaching us to climb!
We will be back!

October is Occupational Therapy month, and we're celebrating our dedicated paediatric Occupational Therapists (OTs), and Occupational Therapy Assistants (OTAs), who help children build skills they need to participate in everyday activities, gain independence, and reach their full potential.
From developing fine motor skills and sensory processing, to supporting self-care, play, and participation at home, school, and in the community, our OTs and OTAs work alongside children and families to make a meaningful difference in their daily lives.
Join us in recognizing and thanking our Occupational Therapists and Assistants for the important work they do to help children learn, grow, and thrive! 🧡
