Hello and welcome to Agosci Inc! Our vision? Our vision is that all communicators can participate fully in all aspects of life because their individual differences in communication assistance needs, modes and styles, are acknowledged and supported throughout communities and in all spaces. Our purpose? AGOSCI exists to provide a community and a platform for people who may not rely on speech alone to understand or be understood by others, their families and supporters, and the professionals who work with them, and to facilitate opportunities and activities that work in service of our vision. Want to know more about AGOSCI? Visit our website at www.agosci.org.au.
