Get Involved

We’re often asked, “How can I help?” and we love that people want to have a bigger role in the #TalkingAAC community! Whether you’re a student interested in volunteering your time or supporting our mission with a donation, there are many ways to get involved. Every effort helps us expand our reach and grow this learning community.

Donate

As a non-profit organization, we thrive on volunteer hours and donations. Every donation you make is tax deductible and goes directly to support the annual conference. Consider donating to support this important work!

Student Volunteers

Hosting a stellar conference each year takes a dedicated team of volunteers, and we couldn’t do it without them! We especially value student volunteers, as we aim to provide learning opportunities for individuals studying in fields related to education and communication.

Vendor Opportunities: Partner With Us in 2026

At the heart of every breakthrough in Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) is a community that refuses to let a voice go unheard. As we gather for two full days of deep learning and an intensive half-day pre-conference, we aren’t just hosting an event - we are building a more inclusive future.

For the innovators, the advocates, and the industry leaders: This is your platform.

In 2026, we are offering a variety of partnership opportunities for AAC related vendors designed to put your brand at the center of the conversation. Whether you are looking to demonstrate cutting-edge technology or foster deep connections with educators, therapists, AAC users, and families, our sponsorship options provide the visibility you need to convert interest into lasting impact.

How You Can Lead the Way:

  • The Vendor Hall Experience: Secure your presence in our high-traffic exhibition hub. Showcase your products directly to an audience of decision-makers and end-users eager for the next generation of AAC solutions.

  • Targeted Sponsorships: Own the moment. Increase your brand equity by supporting one of the meaningful segments of our program. Sponsor a room, a snack break, or one of several other opportunities.

  • Empower Through Scholarships: Make a direct difference. By sponsoring registration for AAC users and their families, you ensure that those at the center of our mission have a seat at the table.

  • Expert Presentation Sessions: Share your thought leadership. Submit a proposal to host a dedicated vendor session and position your team as the go-to experts for professionals and families alike.

  • Engagement & Swag: Stay top-of-mind long after the conference ends. Donate door prizes or branded attendee swag to create a lasting "wow" factor.

  • Propose Your Own Impact Our community thrives on innovation. If you have a creative proposal for how your organization can add value to the conference experience beyond the traditional booth or sponsorship - we want to hear it! Contact info@talkingaac.org to start the conversation.  

Join a community that speaks volumes. Our attendees aren't just looking for tools; they are looking for partners. Let’s collaborate to ensure that every individual has the power to communicate, connect, and thrive.
