AAC Social

AAC Social in Portland, Oregon

AAC Social’s “Get Together” Program is in the spirit of the Out and About groups that have been led by Dr. Caroline Musselwhite, Deanna Wagner, Jane Odom and collaborators in the Phoenix area for years. Once a month, our AAC community can connect, get out and have some fun together.

-Dr. Sam

Future Events

The AAC Social Get Togethers are typically on the first Saturday of the month. The uLab seeks out approximately two family “hosts” who serve to help plan the month’s event and an agency “host” that helps provide additional support. Host roles are designed to be fun service.
