Nick and Proloquo2Go - Tell us, we want to know

Nick is ten years old and was diagnosed with autism. His progress in speech has been extremely slow. Picture symbols, picture exchange communication techniques and photos were tried but did not work out for him, as Nick was not really interested. When Nick started using an iPad, he immediately understood how it worked and really wanted to use it. The device was reinforcing and he sensed it was a powerful tool for him. Now that Nick is using an iPad with Proloquo2Go he no longer has to try to be what other people want him to be, because he can now initiate communication and say what he wants and needs. Nick lives in New Jersey, United States of America.
Proloquo2Go is an augmentative and alternative (AAC) app.

I know this video is old but it makes me so happy and hopeful seeing someone communicate with AAC. I'm working with my 3 year old right now and considering Proloquo2Go.

great video - and quality captioning too - thank you. collaborative for communication via captioning, all volunteers

[@gordontovell5425]

its a small cost for your child to speak, and speech therapy is very expensive every week and doesn't alway work for every child!! I can't wait to get it for my 4 year old son who has ASD.

Proloquo2go has opened a whole new world to my daughter. She has been using it for 5 years now. She is completely non verbal.

[@jeannieboisvert8839]

For the people who cannot afford it, there should be grants available to special needs children to have it available to them. Ask your child's special education , school district staff.

I don't understand something. My granddaughter has been using P2go for years. We cannot get to the "ing" endings of words easily. How is this done? Please let me know. Thank You!

[@AssistiveWare]

Hi - when you tap and hold a verb/action word you trigger an automatic popup that offers a button with the -ing ending. If you have more questions, please email our AssistiveWare Support team at [e-mail] ~pam

I had to get a iPad to get the app 😊 I just ordered a iPad for my 3 yr old son I hope the app works it looks so good.

[@nessaf81]

exactly I cant afford it :(

[@korymccoy5506]

I would buy it but it costs $220

[@punkyshrewster2736]

Why would the company make it so inaccessible to so many low income families? It's disheartening.
