My name is Kaitlin Grout.  I am a BCBA and one of the Clinical Specialists at Journey Found in Manchester.  Although I'm familiar with using AT I am not fluent in assessing or training others to use it. I'm hoping to gain some skills to be able to pass on to staff so that our folks can communicate more.
Also, if you can't tell by my picture, I'm pretty obsessed with my dog.

Hi all! I'm Brandon St.Jean and I am the Human Resources Manager at Horizons. We provide a variety of services, including camp programs, supported employment, supported living, and transition education. We recently formed a committee focused on how we can increase our use of AT to enhance the lives of the people we support and foster their independence, so I look forward to learning about some new strategies through this experience.

I'm Jessica Chmura, Assistant Director of the Kitchen at Futures. I work in a commercial kitchen with young adults with cognitive impairments. I'm interested in AT as a way to help these individuals gain independence in the kitchen in order to be employed outside of Futures or to have the skills needed to live independently. I'm really excited to learn what types of tech may be useful in the kitchen.

Hi Everyone! I am Anna Cardona, VP of IFS for CCARC . We currently support 161 individuals in our Day Program. One of my responsibilities is to review all intake packets for individuals referred to our agency and when I meet with families, I am told that the individual referred has a communication device, but that it has only been used a few times because no one knows how to use it after the individual graduated.  I am hoping that through this training I can get the tools I need to be able to support the individuals in our day program with AT and provide  families with information so that they too can learn how to use AT device to support their son or daughter at home.

My name is Carol Haire.  I am an SLP who worked in the schools for 19 years.  I currently work in a clinic for Autistic Individuals.
In the schools, I had to work with whatever they gave me for the student.  Mostly low tech such as PECS, GoTalk etc.  If I was really lucky, I would get Proloquo2go on an iPad.
I have worked with switches for use with cause and effect and tried to make Proloquo adaptable for the classroom.  In the clinic, I will have more flexibility and so I am hoping that I will be able to pair more appropriate AT to each client.

My name is Joseph Anastasi and I'm a job coach at STAR INC in Norwalk, CT. I was formally in the sales and marketing industry and had worked at Google in NYC. I love tech and what it can do for mankind so AT is a natural progression for me. Applying this to my job coaching skills will be very powerful.
