Yet, many of these people leave the health care system without even knowing that their difficulty communicating has a name - aphasia. <br>In response, the NAA's Board of Directors has passed the Aphasia Bill of Rights to spell out the information and services that people with aphasia need to move forward with their lives. The NAA is calling on health care providers, facilities, and accrediting bodies to incorporate these rights in their treatment of people with aphasia. <br> <br>For more information, please visit: <br><a href="http://www.aphasia.org " target="blank">www.aphasia.org </a> <br></font></td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show
