State of Aphasia, Volume 2

The inability to communicate is devastating to people with aphasia and their families; yet, there has been no single resource describing the social, financial and life quality consequences of aphasia, until now. If you are looking for reams of current statistics, compelling stories, and a one-stop report to understand the state of aphasia care in North America and the globe, this is it. 

As we release Volume 2 of this report, Nina Simmons-Mackie, Ph.D. and Jamie Azios, Ph.D., CCC-SLP (co-investigator for Volume 2) have expanded this new edition by widening the lens to look at the state of aphasia world-wide and including a thorough review of research that addressed gap areas outlined in the first edition of the report. Volume 2 will also point to gaps that still remain and identify new gap areas needing our collective attention. This comprehensive report is the tool for anyone looking to set aphasia research or aphasia service priorities, not to mention grab the attention of funders, policymakers, healthcare administration, and the media.
