Oh man, Kate, I'm sure there are people out there who will think this is totally corny. I am not one of them. This made me cry. I am so grateful to the research of Dr. Klatt and the amazing companies that have emerged as leaders in giving a voice to those, like my son, who can't use theirs. And to teachers and other professionals, like you, who care enough to make sure their voices are included and heard.
