Request for a Keyguard
Keyguards can help individuals with motor or vision difficulties. They sit on top of the iPad screen and are customized for the number of buttons on your AAC user's communication app. A keyguard helps guide their touch by creating a barrier between buttons. Thanks to a partnership with Makers Making Change we are able to print these accessories in-house for $25.
