What is aphasia?
Aphasia (pronounced “a-fay-zha”) is a communication disorder caused by stroke and other types of brain injury. It can result in difficulty speaking, writing, reading or understanding spoken language. Over 50,000 Canadians suffer a stroke each year, and approximately 75 % of those who survive have a chronic disability as a result. Many of these people are living with aphasia. It is estimated that roughly 3,500 people in the Ottawa area are directly affected. Many more family members suffer indirectly as they struggle to maintain their relationship with a loved one who can no longer communicate as before.

About Us
For 15 years, Aphasia Centre of Ottawa has provided care aimed at enhancing clients’ quality of life by helping them improve their ability to communicate with others and regain their self-confidence. Aphasia Centre of Ottawa is a non-profit, community-based organization that relies on donations and fees to provide these much-needed services. The Centre is staffed by two speech-language pathologists, a communicative disorders assistant, and two social workers. Together, they focus on building a supportive environment where people with aphasia feel comfortable and valued. The primary goal is to facilitate renewed participation in social activities and encourage people to overcome the isolation that often results from aphasia by helping them re-establish social contacts.
