IT Support for persons with dissabilities
A wide variety of technology has been created to diminish or eliminate barriers faced by people with disabilities, especially barriers related to computers and technology. Hardware and software tools–known as assistive technology– can aid in tasks such as reading and writing documents, communicating with others, and searching for information online. As the types of assistive technology expand, and as mainstream technologies become more accessible, students and employees with disabilities are more and more capable of handling a wider range of activities independently. Still, people with disabilities continue to face a variety of barriers to computer use.
The pace and scale of change today is staggering
If you are ready to deal with challenges and want to make a better community by using of modern technologies, you should collaborate with us.
