Our card templates are easy to customize from the options menu. Info cards describe your communication ways, capabilities and wishes in a calm and respectful tone. Info cards help reduce misunderstandings, and help you be more calm in surprising situations that may otherwise cause you dread or when encountering new people for the first time, such as new teachers, substitute teachers, new sitters or new doctors/therapists. Sharing information allows more space for compassionate and kind responses from strangers, hopefully leading to less pressure and less unrealistic demands. Info cards may even allow you to feel more compassionately and more acceptingly about your own situation when writing it down.   In I can -section: You can indicate another person what may work for you in some situations, how the new person could re-frame their questions, or what type of communication might be easiest for you. In your wishes -section: You can communicate what you wish the new person would take into account before something you don’t want to happen happens. For example: “Treat me like everyone else”, or “I can’t answer questions or present myself verbally in front of class yet.” Or maybe “Sometimes I have panic attacks, and I may have to leave the room abruptly.”  Having a way to communicate important things to a new person may help you bring down fears of new situations significantly, and reduce the “what if”- catastrophizing thoughts. You can communicate and be on your way.  DRAWPAD Sometimes communication is possible by drawing. The simple drawpad provides a way to express symbols, emojis and feelings, words, or ideas when speech isn’t possible. COMMUNICATION BOARD An AAC communication board that has simple buttons and phrases. It is ideal for any situation where verbal communication is challenging. Messages are slightly zoomed when tapped. You can communicate your basic needs and ask for help. CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS Gentle visual themes and nature-inspired colors Dark / Light themes English and Finnish (Suomi) languages available, more languages may be added over time.
