A practical guide to establishing safe and supportive Communication Groups for people with aphasia.This book is a hands-on guide for those who want to create spaces where people with aphasia can communicate safely, creatively, and with acceptance. It offers clear steps, ideas, and examples of good practice for health professionals, university students, families, caregivers, and people with aphasia, intending to develop groups that reduce social isolation and promote participation. Inspired by the TACT group in Cyprus and international initiatives, the book seeks to support the creation of more communication groups in every community.
  • Clear guidance on organization, space preparation, and activity selection, adaptable to a wide range of settings.
  • Grounded in international examples and the experience of the TACT group in Cyprus, with direct application to everyday practice.
  • Promotes participation and reduces social exclusion through creative and flexible communication.
  • A valuable resource for health professionals, families, caregivers, and people with aphasia who wish to build meaningful community spaces.
Aphasia profoundly affects everyday life, making communication, participation, and social connections more difficult. Communication Groups provide a space where language is approached with flexibility and respect, allowing people with aphasia to express themselves in their own way and to feel part of a community. This book highlights the importance of such groups and proposes ways in which they can be integrated into the everyday practice of professionals, families, and organizations.
