We’re Headed to Closing The Gap 2025!

by | Oct 7, 2025

October 7, 2025

We’re thrilled to share that Control Bionics will be exhibiting and presenting at the 43rd Annual Closing The Gap Conference, taking place October 21–24, 2025 at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Bloomington, Minnesota. This event brings together the best minds in assistive technology, and we can’t wait to connect, learn, and share our latest innovations in communication access.

You can find us in the Exhibit Hall at Booth 310, where we’ll be showcasing our full range of AAC solutions—including our speech-generating devices and unique access methods that empower people with speech and motor challenges to communicate independently. Stop by to try out our devices, ask questions, and chat with our team about how we can support your AAC goals.

We’re also excited to be part of the conference program with two engaging presentations. Whether you’re a therapist, educator, or AAC user, we’d love for you to join us at:

Joyful Connections: Enhancing Communication Through Play

This session, presented by Wendi McMillan and Kristin Whitfield, will highlight how play and recreation can open doors to meaningful communication and connection. Hear for lots of fun and engaging ideas on Thursday, October 23 from 10:00–11:00 AM (CT) in Plaza 2.

AAC on the Page and Screen: What Can We Learn?

In this session, Kristin Whitfield will explore how media portrays people who use AAC, uncovering both challenges and opportunities for building awareness and inclusion. Enjoy movie and TV clips as well as consider what they can teach us in our own lives on Wednesday, October 22 from 1:30–2:30 PM (CT) in Atrium 1.

We can’t wait to see you in Minnesota! Of course, if you are not able to go to Closing the Gap, feel free to contact us here with any questions or AAC needs. We would love to get to know you!
