The TalkAbility guidebook is for parents of children on the autism spectrum who want to support the special language abilities and social skills that lead to more successful conversations and relationships. Parents learn strategies they can apply to everyday interactions to deepen their child's understanding of language and social cues, and to help them have more extended conversations with both adults and peers. They also learn how to understand their child's perspective and encourage their child to understand the perspectives of others. Speech-language pathologists and other professionals around the world also use this guidebook to enhance the service they offer to families of children on the autism spectrum or who have social communication difficulties.
