Best money Ive ever spent
My son is nonverbal and autistic, along with a few other acronyms. He did Ok with sign and PECS but never really GOT IT and never really had motivation. We did a trial with talkers and he had no interest. Just when we gave up, someone mentioned proloquo. I mentioned it to school, they got him a loaner, we downloaded it onto our ipad . In two days he was interacting with it INDEPENDENTLY. He has some significant academic and other delays so I was skepitcal. But he loves it.
It was easy for us to set up and personalize, we even downloaded a young boys voice. We can take our own pictures of things that arent in the database. We can customize it fully. WE LOVE THAT.
We also have PRC and it is a good program but for some reason Proloquo is a bit easier for our son to use. We have the support of the school and he is suddenly vocalizing since starting to use it! He is now saying, "I WAAANT". I like that you can choose between core words and basics, too.
I cannot say enough good things about it! Just be sure to work with your childs therapists or educators. It will pay off!
