The University of Michigan Aphasia Program (UMAP) at the University Center for Language and Literacy (UCLL) is offering a new group for former U-M Aphasia Program care partners. This group is an informal way for care partners to connect with others who are familiar with aphasia on a personal level. This group is open to former attendees of the in-person or teletherapy intensive aphasia program. Whether you attended UMAP 10 years ago, or six months ago, you are welcome to join.
This group is meant to provide a place to build bonds with other aphasia care partners, to share knowledge and resources that have helped your situation, and/or to just listen and breathe.
These free groups meet virtually via Zoom, once a month.
Let our team know if there is a particular topic or resource you would like to explore or discuss: this group is for you! We look forward to being as open and flexible as possible to make it work best for those of you who are interested in participating!
* Please note: This group is moderated by a U-M Aphasia Program clinician, but is not offered as therapy or in place of therapy.
