“We've tried lots of different and sometimes expensive therapies, but due to its success, family involvement, and wealth of information, Communicating Partners is the one we've stayed with the longest. When we started, Jonathan was pretty isolated, and is now initiating contact with people and raising his hand to do 'Jonathan talk' in a group.
