You are 10 years old and you go to school every day wanting to make friends. You love video games and watching baseball just like the other kids in your class. Your problem isn't that you don't like what your friends like, it is that you don't have the words to tell them! You want to fit in but you are always left on the sideline.
One day, someone shows you a special computer device that lets you start to talk to your classmates. You can answer questions in class. You can tell your mom that you love her, but you can't stand broccoli!!
This is the power I want to give to non-speaking kids throughout Indiana!! I want to give them a voice so they can show us who they really are!!! I can't wait to see what the future holds for these kids!!!
