This preliminary list of words related to LEND is intended for trainees, faculty, and others involved in LEND who use AAC (augmentative/alternative communication). These AAC users may want to program the following words/phrases into a communication device (or print them onto a paper-based communication board) to help them fully communicate about and participate in LEND.
This list was created by a mostly-nonspeaking self-advocate training coordinator, Endever* Corbin, at the beginning of their time at the OHSU LEND. As such, is it likely incomplete! Your suggestions for additions are welcome. Please email Endever at [email protected] with vocabulary you’d suggest adding, and note if/how you want to be credited for the suggestion (such as with your name, an online handle, or “anonymous”).
