Supporting people with paralysis to build greater independence.
We help people living with paralysis capitalize on their strengths through assistive technology, resource navigation, advocacy, and practical support for greater independence.
Our mission
Supporting people with disabilities to capitalize on their strengths. Through advocacy, creating and adapting wheel-friendly living spaces, assistive technology, and guidance to resources, we work to further independence for people with all levels of ability.
What we do
Assistive technology
We help connect people with technology that can improve access to computers, communication, gaming, work, and control of their environment.
Resource navigation
We help people identify appropriate vendors, nonprofits, and other resources for the needs they are trying to solve.
Independence at home and in the community
Our work is centered on improving quality of life, increasing independence, and reducing unnecessary burden on caregivers.
