The Communication P.A.L.S. Lab

Let's be P.A.L.S.!

The Communication Participation and Adaptive Listening Support Lab is dedicated to developing participation-focused interventions that help people meaningfully take part in everyday activities.

We study how personal perspectives, communication environments, and communication skills interact to affect participation.

We work with children, adolescents, and adults with communication disabilities. Our current project is focused on adolescents with Down syndrome.
