Patrick Regan and a quote from his article in the AAC journal

The first word in accessibility is “access” (Regan, 2025)

Patrick Regan (2025) is President-Elect of USSAAC, and he also plays leadership roles in ISAAC, and in outreach programs for the Bridge School. Patrick experiences Spinal Muscular Atrophy, and has used a wide variety of AAC to communicate. In this paper, he describes “access challenges that I have experienced as someone who uses AAC, how my team and I have resolved them, and what challenges I face now.”
