June is #Aphasia Awareness Month, and as it comes to a close, we are officially announcing the kickoff of our Aphasia Games for Health project. Thread to follow. Please like and retweet to help spread awareness! @ARCaphasia #AphasiaGames4Health. 1/n 
2+ Million people in the US have #Aphasia, a language disorder caused by stroke and other brain injury. It can affect speaking, listening, reading & writing. Aphasia is isolating and affects #mentalhealth. Learn more from the @NatAphasiaAssoc here! aphasia.org/aphasia-faqs. 2/n
The problem: we know that with the right kind of practice and hard work, people with #aphasia can continue to slowly recover for years (and even decades!), but treatment covered by healthcare is unfortunately very limited and short-term. 3/n
