Abstract
This paper reports on efforts to develop community-based volunteer support for people suffering from aphasia by looking at the activities of three volunteers I was able to recruit while working as a speech-language therapist in Setagaya Ward in Tokyo. One woman has been supporting various activities of an aphasia peer circle, another has offered her home as meeting place for discussion, and another has scheduled regular meetings with a young mother with aphasia. By reviewing their activities, I offer reflections on the potential for creating networks in the local community to provide support for people with communication disorders in their efforts to rebuild and improve their lives.
