dc.description.abstractIn this video, Maurisa Moloto, a community trainer, discusses the factors that help and hinder communication for and with children with intellectual disabilities. She discusses what communication is and what its function is, incorporating speech, sound, body language, touch, and physical media (photographs, videos, etc.). She emphasises the need to embrace a functional communication approach, which stresses the needs and capacity of children with disabilities, which stresses developing the children's self-determination and the development of skills for self-care such as the ability to dress, feed and bath themselves. She also stresses that communication skills are vital for children with intellectual disabilities to develop social skills and the ability to interact with others to the best of their ability. She expands upon the importance of providing choice to children with disabilities as a key component of promoting self-autonomy, encouraging decision-making to the extent that is possible, and offering people with disabilities the ability to self-direct and make meaningful choices in their lives.en_US
