LET THEM HAVE THEIR VOICES is a campaign to ensure that non-speaking children, especially those with autism, have the support they need to communicate. Over 30 million non-speaking autistic individuals worldwide lack the tools for effective communication, often due to systemic barriers and complicated access to AAC devices. Inspired by Joshua Harris (The Joshie-Man), who uses an affordable AAC device to communicate, we believe non-speaking children should have access to these essential tools just like hearing aids are provided to those with hearing impairments. However, many families face challenges in obtaining devices due to funding delays or lack of awareness
