Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.

When It Is Used

Use it when partner behavior and support routines affect AAC consistency across home, school, community, or other everyday interaction settings.

Practitioner And Partner Roles

The practitioner controls the plan and final strategy wording. Partners may contribute contextual details and view the portions relevant to their role.

Relevant Limitations

The plan is not a training curriculum, compliance tracker, partner score, or AAC goal plan.

Can partners see their own part of the plan?

Yes. The product supports role-specific views focused on a partner's relevant settings, routines, and strategies.

Does the tool score partner performance?

No. It flags missing or vague strategies but does not score partner competence or quality.

Can one partner have different strategies in different settings?

Yes. Strategies remain separate by partner-context pair so differences across settings are visible.

Who writes the final strategies?

The practitioner controls the final support strategies, with team, partner, or AAC user input where available.
