 Even though Aphasia Awareness Month (June) is over, research, advocacy, and diagnosis and treatment for people with aphasia (PWA) is ongoing. In our previous blog, we defined what it means to have aphasia; what causes it; how it impacts daily functions; and strategies to support PWA.

Moore went on to say that Willis would be stepping away from his career in acting as a result of the diagnosis.
