We developed this Social Toolkit as part of Aphasia Awareness Month this June. In concert with the OneWord videos, the purpose of the Toolkit is to help aphasia heroes and ambassadors spread the word about this little known but common communication disorder. If you have aphasia, care for someone with aphasia, or treat patients with aphasia, this toolkit is for you.

We’ve created posts, below, to share on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest or whichever social media channel you prefer. To use, simply copy and paste onto your social media channel. Use them as is, or adapt them to the needs of your aphasia communities.

Let’s get the conversation started!
