A school-based intervention designed to increase the positive nature of children's attitudes toward peers who use AAC is described. Small groups of children were given only information about AAC or they were given information about AAC and the opportunity to role-play being nonspeaking. Results indicated a greater positive effect of the information plus role-play experience compared to the effects of being given information alone for older children and boys. Clinical implications and suggestions for future research are discussed.

Key Words: school-based interventions, attitudes, AAC
