Talk Slow Day - June 10

Talk Slow Day

be deliberate. feel relaxed. face to face.

give the other person a chance to understand.  


Communication can break down in various conditions – cannot hear because it is too loud, too many voices in a room, not face to face, and talking too fast.  Talk Slow Day is for people with neurological communication disorders like aphasia caused by stroke, head trauma, brain tumor, brain infection, or diseases like multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's, or cerebral palsy. BUT remember, don’t talk like a baby. 


Will you join our campaign to Talk Slow Day on June 10th?

It is an unofficial day but the struggle is real.
