Communication Matrix
HeaderWhat is the Communication Matrix?
The Communication Matrix is an assessment tool created to help professionals and family members support individuals with complex communication needs.
Foundational Modules
The Communication Matrix Intervention Modules are organized so that the three-part “Communication Matrix Life After the Assessment: The Foundation for Intervention” is viewed first. The “Essential Strategies” should be viewed next, followed by viewing the videos for the one or two levels where the individual is functioning as identified on the Communication Matrix.
We recommend reviewing these foundational modules first.
