This workshop will share information on how current smart home technologies can benefit the blind and low vision community. This will include the use of smart speakers and a voice assistant (i.e.: Alexa) for tasks around the home (maintain calendar, stay up on news, set timer, etc.) and will address how these systems can promote Aging in Place.

Thanks to a partnership Future In Sight has with the Older Individuals who are Blind and Visually Impaired Program (OIBVIP), we are pleased to offer this small group workshop. Interested people must live in NH, be 55 or older, able to provide a recent eye report, and have a corrected acuity no greater than 20/50. By signing up this does not guarantee everyone a spot as these workshops are limited to 5 participants. Someone will be in contact to complete further necessary paperwork, and upon such approval 5 people will be secured a spot for the workshop.

To apply for a spot, please call 603-224-4039.
