Advocacy & Outreach Tabling Events
Throughout each year, Tucson Spellers participates in community outreach events and resource fairs to increase awareness of nonspeaking autism, apraxia, communication access, and the importance of presuming competence. By partnering with local organizations and participating in community events, we connect with families, educators, therapists, and community members while sharing resources and fostering meaningful conversations. These events also provide valuable opportunities for nonspeaking individuals to engage in advocacy, self-advocacy, and community leadership, helping create a more informed and inclusive Southern Arizona.
