iPad and educational software for Josiah who is learning to communicate using its assistive technology

Posted Feb 6, 2020
Josiah’s interactions with people in his life have really expanded as he learns new words in sign language; an iPad would serve to increase his ability to interact fully with those around him. Everyone around Josiah says how incredible it is to see the growth that has been made with the iPad that he is able to use at school, however, having one that he can use at home as well would mean the world to him and his continued growth!

Josiah is 12 years old and lives in NJ

Josiah is where radiance and joy meet! He is all laughs and smiles when interacting with those he cherishes. He lets you know just how much he enjoys your company by sharing his latest sign language expressions. Josiah is dependent on visual and sensory cues. Nonetheless with each encounter you will see just how amazed and excited he is about life. To watch him seek adventure while he propels down the hall is an invaluable experience. He has great upper body strength and can independently navigate in his wheelchair. TV watching is a favorite pastime and his love of Mickey Mouse cartoons can be contagious. Josiah is truly a joy and a pure delight. A family will need to be comfortable with caring for him now and as he matures.
