CIL hosts first FAAST vendor event!

Last week, the FAAST Program had its first vendor demonstration here at the CIL!  We were happy to host Parth Shah and Mohit Patil, Founders of Abilitare.  They both demonstrated how to use their hands-free computer access devices, the Abili Mouse, Abili Toolbar and Abili Switch.  These amazing products allow users to navigate a computer completely hands-free!  Everyone who attended enjoyed the presentation and also learned more about the FAAST Program from CIL Assistive Technologies Specialist, Claudia Avendano and CIL Consumer Specialist Brandon Palermo. 

To learn more about Abilitare and all it has to offer people with disabilities, please visit www.abilitare.com or reach out to Parth and Mohit at info@abilitare.com.
