Guest Speaker Presents on Armenian AAC App

In honor of Better Speech and Hearing Month, we invited Speech Language Pathologist and co-founder of Harmony Speech and Diagnostics, Taline Ashekian M.S. CCC-SLP/ASDCS, to present to TFA members about her role in developing the ARMAV App. The ARMAV App is the first Armenian language Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) software. AAC supports those who are non-verbal communicate with a voice. In her presentation Ms. Ashekian outlined what AAC is, the development of the Western Armenian vocabulary in the ARMAV app, creation of the icons, voice recordings, and who can benefit from the use of the app. The ARMAV App provides 4 voices, because each individual can require different voice options. It also provides the opportunity to enlarge the vocabulary of the App, providing each individual the opportunity of having specific words for his/her communication. The App can be used for both face to face and distance communication. It is available in Eastern and Western Armenian for free in your app store. We were so grateful to have Ms. Ashekian present to the TFA team!
