News Flash – Thanks to additional funding from the Ministry of Employment and Income Assistance, the eligibility age requirement has been increased to age 35. For complete details on the announcement – more details here
Communication Assistance for Youth and Adults (CAYA) is a project created through Special Education Technology BC (SET-BC) to serve adults between the ages of 19-35 who require alternative or augmentative communication (AAC) assistance. The project is designed to address the crucial transition period to adulthood for young people with severe communication disabilities. The goal of CAYA is to ensure that eligible individuals have access to the communication tools and professional support to enable them to create an adult life to the best of their abilities. For more information, read our CAYA FAQ page.
| Request for Service (RFS)Form | CAYA Technical Support Help |
 |
|
| This form must be completed and returned by any young adult 19-35, who’s speech is not adequate to meet his/her daily needs and wishes to access CAYA services. | All contact information and preparation details required for calling technical support. |
NOTE: CAYA will accept requests for service for individuals 28 - 35 years immediately but we cannot begin serving this group until the first 08-09 cycle in September 2008. The delay reflects the need for CAYA to increase services to address a greater number of people. Individuals with disastrous degenerative conditions where time is of the essence are the exception - they will be seen as soon as possible. We thank you for your patience.
