About
Outlook Enrichment’s Adaptive Technology program empowers individuals who are blind or visually impaired and their support systems with tools and training to confidently navigate today’s technology. Our services include:
- Comprehensive assessments
- Information and guidance on adaptive technology options
- Individualized one-on-one training twice a week
On average, we provide approximately 1,400 hours of adaptive technology training each year, focusing on improving access to telecommunication tools and helping clients better understand the capabilities of iPhone, Android, and other accessible applications.
Program
The Enrichment team has developed customized curricula for a wide range of adaptive and assistive technologies used in personal, educational, and professional settings.
Each client’s personal goals guide training, whether learning to navigate a smart device or completing everyday tasks like paying bills. Our tools and instruction are specifically designed for individuals who are blind or have dual-sensory impairments, including those who rely on JAWS, screen magnifiers, or other assistive technologies.
Individual Sessions
Clients are encouraged to meet with an adaptive technology trainer for two one-hour sessions each week, although sessions can be adjusted based on individual needs and availability. Sessions are available in person or virtual via Zoom.
Open Lab Sessions
Open lab sessions are available every Friday for current clients, past clients, and the general public. During these sessions, participants can ask questions, get help with specific tasks, and receive additional training or support.
We encourage anyone planning to attend to call ahead and let our team know.
