Blind and Physically Disabled Students Face Academic Challenges

The Killian Foundation is partnering with La Usina, a non-profit organization in Buenos Aires that provides advocacy and support to individuals with disabilities. Our project will allow blind and physically disabled high school dropouts to complete their high school diploma by using a state of the art distance learning program on laptops that were designed specifically for them. The schools in Argentina do not make accommodations for children with disabilities, so most of them drop out of school and end up with limited job skills.   If you or an organization you know of is currently involved in a similar project with visually impaired or physically disabled people, we would like to hear from you and share your insights.  Please contact us at info@killianfoundation.org or simply respond to our blog.
