At Makers Making Change, we believe in collaborating to make even more effective assistive solutions. On that note, we want to introduce two makers: Ross Porter, a Seattle-based maker who created the dementia-friendly music player, and Trey Bagley, who made the 3D-printed design.
Join Makers Making Change on Thursday, July 5th, at the Vancouver Hack Space to fix some LipSyncs.
All of our employment staff in British Columbia will be attending a special three day course on June 26th, 27th, and 28th with the BC Career Development Association so they can secure their Certified Career Development Practitioner certification.

Right now on the iOS app store there are countless talking calculators available for purchase and even some for free. We’ve looked at Talking Calculator in the past, and it does a great job of calculating complex formulas hands-free with full VoiceOver support.
