A UCLA-linked collaboration exploring how play-based autism interventions and augmentative communication technology can work together for early communicators.
Field notes
The project combines naturalistic developmental behavioral interventions with photo-based augmentative communication boards that a parent or therapist can reportedly assemble quickly. Its research framing centers on a cited randomized trial of 61 minimally verbal autistic children aged 5–8, while the proposed Visual Play app would organize play activities by developmental level and add verbs and adjectives. The page also seeks feedback from clinicians and parents before planned Los Angeles events and future app trials.
