AAC/AT Department

Assistive technology (AT) is any technology used to enable individuals to perform tasks that are difficult or impossible due to disabilities. Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) is the supplementation or replacement of natural speech and/or writing using aided and/or unaided symbols. In order to assist its 23 member districts in St. Clair County in meeting the special needs of their students who require AT and AAC, BASSC provides a specialized team consisting of certified speech-language pathologists and an assistive technology assistant. This team provides specialized supports, training, and direct and consultative services to students and staff. BASSC also has an AT Lending Library with over 300 different items available for loan.
