Any condition that affects one's ability to detect, receive, send, process, or comprehend various aspects of language--both verbal and nonverbal--may lead to communication disabilities. They can impair hearing, voice, speech, language, cognition, and learning abilities. The causes of such impairments are unknown in most cases. According to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), about five percent of children by first grade have noticeable speech disorders. It is important to identify anyone experiencing communication challenges and address them promptly and effectively. Failure to do so may result in additional issues such as stress, depression, and isolation. Communication Disabilities Sourcebook, Second Edition explains what voice, speech, and language are and how communication disorders may develop. Various types of communication disabilities and their impact on personal, social, and economic well-being are discussed. The sourcebook provides information about recovery models, rehabilitation techniques, and the rights and benefits of people with communication disabilities. The book concludes with a list of resources for additional help and information. Part 1: Understanding Communication Disorder begins with an explanation about voice, speech, and language and describes how communication disorders may develop in a person. It discusses various kinds of communication disorders, such as hearing disorder, language disorder, apraxia of speech, speech disorder, and autism spectrum disorder, and how they may create challenges in communication. Statistical data about voice, speech, and language disorders in the United States is also provided. Part 2: The Personal, Social, and Economic Impact of Communication Disabilities explains how communication disabilities can affect a person's life and cause several lifestyle issues. The social stigma of communication disorders is discussed in detail, along with employment options available for people with communication disabilities. Part 3: Recovery, Rehabilitation, and Caregiving focuses on the medical and social approaches to address communication disorders, including rehabilitation medicine, speech pathology, peer support, and more. It offers tips for taking care of a person with communication disabilities and provides insight into recent technological developments in treating such disabilities. Part 4: Protection, Rights, and Benefits explains how people with communication disabilities can obtain benefits through the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). It highlights the rights of employees with communication disabilities and provides information about disability rights and the neurodiversity movements. Part 5: Additional Resources lists government and private organizations that provide help and support to people with communication disabilities.
