“…The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (2019) reported risk factors for bullying, including physical vulnerability, intolerant environments, and social skill challenges (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2019). Individuals with CCN may be at even greater risk for bullying as they may have difficulty reporting the problem to someone (L. Anderson, 2020;Beukelman & Light, 2020). Without effective supports for positive peer interactions, students who use AAC may have negative experiences with peers in the school setting that influence their motivation, attitudes, confidence, and communicative competence (A.…”
