Citizens With Disabilities –
New Technologies
DISCLAIMER
The CWDO TEC, by posting information about new and
up-coming technologies, is not endorsing any of the
ideas or technology.
As an organization continuously seeking the means and methods of removing or at least reducing barriers faced by persons with disabilities, we recognize the importance of change and the importance of supporting change.
CWDO also recognizes the fact that no one solution
for access or accommodation will work for everyone. For
these reasons, even if we may not agree with potential
solutions, CWDO believes it is important to bring
awareness of new and developing technology to our
members.
