Our Auditory-Verbal Therapy graduates speak for themselves!
100% of the VOICE Alumni (surveyed) have graduated from high school with greater than 50% holding
a post secondary education.
"I think that who I am as a person today would not have been possible without
the support and encouragement of VOICE. Sometimes a little support goes a long way, especially if it helps someone
realize their true capacity and potential. Certainly, my ability to be comfortable in mainstream society stems
partly from the confidence I gained from knowing my potential. It's difficult for me to even fathom how different
my life would have been, but I will always be truly grateful for the chances and opportunities that VOICE helped
me gain". Nathan Owen-Going, PhD
