Anna Ware
MS, CCC-SLP
Anna Ware, MS, CCC-SLP, is a speech-language pathologist with 15 years of clinical experience and a deep passion for Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). She has worked across age groups in leading medical institutions including Shirley Ryan Ability Lab and Shriners Hospital in Chicago, where she honed her expertise in AAC assessment and intervention.
Anna has taught both continuing education and graduate-level courses on AAC, driven by her mission to make AAC knowledge accessible to clinicians in all settings. She believes that no person should be left without a voice or the opportunity to communicate, and she advocates for both high-tech funding solutions and low-tech, paper-based resources to ensure equitable access.
Her advocacy is grounded in cultural humility and a strong sense of responsibility, especially when helping individuals develop a means to communicate. Anna recently launched her own practice, *AAC Aware PLLC*, in the Chicago area, and shares insights and resources through her Instagram platform [@AAC_Aware](https://www.instagram.com/aac_aware).
She earned her Bachelor of Science from Western Michigan University and her Master of Science in Speech-Language Pathology from Seton Hall University. Now based in Chicago, Anna is raising her family—including her two young sons and spouse—in the city she proudly calls home. Unlimited
