What is "Storytime with AAC"? 

This program is designed for emergent communicators four years old and up (emergent communicators are new or existing AAC users who typically communicate with single words). It is open to children of all abilities and their families! Please note that communicating with an AAC device is slow, and we will pace storytime with this in mind. Find out more about "Storytime with AAC" and see all upcoming programs at Fremont Main and Union City Libraries.

An ASL (American Sign Language) interpreter or closed captioning can be provided for this program if requested at least three business days in advance. For assistance, please contact your library or accessibility@aclibrary.org.
