Campaign idea: Connor found his voice through spelling

Connor was non-verbal and overwhelmed by guessing games. A communication device revealed he could spell.

This story

Connor is 13, non-verbal, and has autism and complex needs. When picture cards were no longer enough to express his thoughts, he experienced distressing meltdowns and hurt himself out of frustration. After trialling a speech device at school that uncovered his emerging spelling skills, he received his own device to communicate at home.

What your brand could do

Provide the tech setup to help Connor communicate and share his thoughts freely at home.
