Primary Progressive Aphasia, also known as PPA, is a degenerative neurological condition in
which language capabilities become impaired over time. However, it defers greatly from other forms of Aphasia. 

Receiving a diagnosis of primary progressive aphasia is hard. Sometimes it may only be in hindsight that all of the early signs of difficulty even become apparent. Learn more about what the journey to diagnosis of PPA may look like and how a Speech Language Pathologist plays a role in treatment for communication.

Intensive Aphasia therapy has been proven to be beneficial for Persons with Aphasia (PWA). However, intensive therapy can also be costly and difficult to fit into your schedule. One thing we always encourage our clients to do is participate in home practice programs and supplement their therapy in other ways with socialization, groups, book clubs, etc. Supplemental therapy is a cost-effective way to boost your regularly scheduled therapy. Learn how to make a customized supplemental program that fits your needs and interests. 

Explore our list of treatment activities that can supplement one's therapy sessions, created by Persons with Aphasia and their caregivers. We hope that this will inspire you to add creative activities to your home practice, provide you with unique ideas, and encourage you to share your own home practice alternatives with us!

We would like to extend our congratulations to Bill Glazer, who was recently recognized by the National Aphasia Association as an "Aphasia Champion."

Bill made it his mission to use his own marketing business and the connections he had all over the world to help raise money. He hosted Information Summits, and wrote and sold his own book (which he wrote after his stroke, another huge endeavor and accomplishment contributing to his recovery), with the goal of donating the proceeds to an organization helping people with Aphasia.

Bill has raised over $130,000 since he started raising funds in 2018, and his efforts to raise more money continue to be the focus of his ongoing hard work and dedication to his profession.
