Description
Across the country maker moments abound, many focused on propelling technology production. However, this approach has immediate benefit for the disability community. Learn about how a federally funded model demonstration program and a group of university students partner to implement a maker-movement called "fabricATe" - so that curious and creative people who enjoy learning love sharing what they can do and individuals with disabilities can participate in everyday life activities.Back to Session: Poster Symposium: Assistive and Accessible Technology
