Meet Our Trainers

[/vc_column_text][dt_gap height=”40″][vc_column_text]Saved By Typing is pleased to provide information about Facilitated Communication (FC) Trainers and Master Trainers in various regions of the US and around the world.

Facilitator training is provided in cooperation with The Institute on Communication & Inclusion (ICI,) a department of Syracuse University’s School of Education, a national leader in inclusive urban education.

For almost 20 years, the ICI has been giving a voice and a means to communicate to people with disabilities who may have otherwise been living in silence or isolation by conducting research and promoting support for people with disabilities to communicate in schools and society.

Master Trainers are facilitators who have been working with Facilitated Communication (a.k.a. Supported Typing) users for many years, have attended FC trainings ranging from introductory workshops to advanced Training of Trainers, and have become skilled and experienced to provide consultations, advice, and support to individuals with autism and their families.[/vc_column_text][dt_gap height=”40″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/6″][vc_single_image image=”759″ style=”vc_box_circle” border_color=”grey” img_link_target=”_self” link=”http://authenticjohn.wpengine.com/jane-remington-gurney-facilitated-communication-master-trainer/” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]

Join us on Saturday March 18, 2017 at 4:00 PM for our next Celebration of Communication.

These informal gatherings provide a much-needed place for families dealing with autism to relax and have some fun, free of the pressures of typical social settings.

It’s a great way to meet and greet other families and individuals with common experiences.
