Meeting With Kara And Alice

Imagine!’s SmartHomes team is always looking for examples of how other individuals and organizations are using technology to improve the lives of individuals with intellectual disabilities. Recently, SmartHomes guru Greg Wellems and tech specialist Alex Andrews met with Alice Brouhard and her daughter Kara (pictured below). During the meeting the group discussed how Alice and Kara are using iPad technology in Kara’s home. Alice has been part of the Families at the Forefront of Technology Conference and is currently heading the “Kara’s Own Voice” campaign, a petition to Apple to restore functionality to Aida Reminder, an app that provided voice reminders.

Check out that campaign here.
