Aphasia Forward is an online community created by and for people with aphasia. Through our free virtual conversation groups, members come together to practice speaking, reading, listening, storytelling and everyday communication in a welcoming and encouraging environment.

Aphasia Forward is a peer-support community, not a therapy program. Our focus is helping people with aphasia connect, communicate and support one another.

What is aphasia?

Our volunteer groups provide opportunities to build friendships, share experiences and connect with others who understand the challenges of living with aphasia.

Because all of our groups meet online, you can participate from anywhere.

Whether your aphasia is recent or you’ve been living with it for years, you’ll find a place where communication is valued, patience is understood and every voice matters.

Let’s begin the conversation.

If you have aphasia—or care about someone who does—and would like to learn more about our groups, we’d love to hear from you.

Please submit the form and we will reach out with additional information about how to get in touch.
