What we do
Programs that turn technology into independence
We focus on the part that often gets missed: helping people understand their options, complete the process, receive the right technology, and actually learn to use it.
STAP application help
We help eligible Texans work through the STAP application, understand device choices, and connect with an approved vendor after a voucher is issued.
Get STAP help →Technology Connection
Our twice-monthly Zoom gathering blends device setup and training, demos, guest contributors, tech trainers, questions, and practical accessibility help.
Learn about the Zoom call →Blinded Veterans program
We help eligible legally blind U.S. veterans access the national Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses donation program and learn how to use the glasses.
Veteran eligibility and help →AI for the Blind Club
A welcoming Facebook community built by and for people who are blind or low vision—and anyone who wants to use AI more effectively.
Join the Club →Athina AD
An AI-powered accessibility project focused on helping blind and low-vision people hear what others see in video through audio description.

Blindness is not an afterthought here.
The AI for the Blind Club began in 2023 with three people and one shared idea: emerging technology can level the playing field when blind people are included from the beginning.
What started as a conversation grew into a nonprofit organization connecting people to training, equipment programs, community expertise, and accessible AI projects.

Accessible first. Information should work with screen readers, magnification, keyboards, voice control, and real-world assistive technology.
Practical over hype. We teach what a tool can actually do, where it falls short, and how to use it in daily life.
People after the paperwork. Receiving technology is only the beginning. Training and community make it useful.
