Aphasia in the news
Aphasia is an 'hidden' disability and many people do not know about it or understand it. The Aphasia Alliance is united to raise awareness of aphasia and on 14th April 2008 an awareness-raising campaign was launched. Connect is one of eleven members of the Aphasia Alliance. Here are some features about aphasia and about Connect in the press:
