On Tuesday, a communication board was installed in the children's park in Mlini for children and adults with communication, language, and/or speech difficulties, the first of its kind in the Dubrovnik-Neretva County.
The Head of the Borough, Silvio Nardelli, hosted speech therapists Nikolina Klešković and Kristina Milolaža, who, as members of the Croatian Speech-Language Therapy Society, initiated and realized this project with financial support from the Municipality. He thanked them for their commendable initiative, which has made the Municipality better and more accessible to children and people with difficulties.
The communication board is intended for children and adults who cannot communicate through speech and/or have difficulties understanding language (such as individuals with autism spectrum disorders, intellectual disabilities, speech-motor disorders, genetic syndromes, etc.).
The board in Mlini is bilingual, in Croatian and English, which allows communication with foreign visitors as well.
