Designed and led by Kids+ AAC & Technology Coordinator, Noah Callan, Kids+ Tek is a platform designed to support our community within the realm of technology and help others in similar situations.
The platform allows clients to discuss and share information on the best devices and software available for individuals with various disabilities so that they can access the most suitable technology.
Through Kids + Tek, clients can share their own setup with others who have similar or the same disability, providing insight into what equipment and devices are effective for them. The platform also offers a comprehensive database of information on various augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) and gaming setups, as well as forums and news related to assistive technology.
Our objective is to be a resource for the Kids+ community to connect, share information, and learn about assistive technology options, all with the goal of helping others in similar situations.
What Noah says
“Kids+ Tek supports the disabled community with technology. Our goal is to connect, share information and learn about assistive technology.”
Meet Kids+ Tek Creator
Noah Callan is the founder of Kids+ Tek and is also Kids+ AAC and Technology Coordinator.
Noah is 26 years old and he himself has a disability. Noah has cerebral palsy (quadriplegia) and as a result has relied heavily on technology for most of his life.
Noah understands first-hand the power that technology can have in improving one's life when you have a disability.
Noah has reasoned that if people with disabilities are able to share with others how they access and use technology then others can learn from this and overcome the trials and barriers in trying to source new technology for themselves

But, what if the person in the job cannot communicate verbally to their colleagues? That’s when AAC comes in.
