Hangouts
ImpAACt Voices' Hangouts are a virtual venue where Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) users meet to build relationships by socializing with their peers of all abilities.
Hangouts, for ages 14 and older, are led by AAC users and rooted in compassion, belonging, and community. They are a fun way to foster connections, have lively discussions, join in activities, and most importantly, enjoy yourself. Hosted Hangouts are hosted by expert ImpAACt Leaders and are every second Tuesday of each month from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM ET.
Star-guest speakers join the Hangouts to uplift and encourage AAC users. They discuss what they are working on and pass down valuable insights to inspire AAC users to pursue their dreams.
Informal Hangouts, Chat & Check-Ins are every third Thursday of each month from 6:00 PM to 6:45 PM ET. We open up the ImpAACt Zoom platform, with no agenda, just a time for everyone to get together and chat.
We have expert AAC users at all of our Hangouts. Come to be encouraged and empowered wherever you are on your communication journey.
Join us and meet other AAC users by joining a growing community. To learn more about our Hangouts, reach out to us at info@impaactvoices.org
