Richard Dodds, Presenter

Technology can open doors and break down barriers for children, youth, and adults with disabilities. Whether in the classroom or workplace, assistive technology (including devices, software, recordings, and much more) can increase, maintain, or improve the capabilities of individuals with disabilities.
Attendees will see how quality of life is enhanced by having control of one’s environment. A hands-on
demonstration of Assistive Technology devices will be used to highlight points throughout this presentation.
