iPods for ASP Cebu

JCI Philippines recently donated iPods to the Autism Society of the Philippines (ASP) chapter in Cebu. The iPods donated came with the Proloquo2Go software, an assistive technology software that works in devices such as the iPod. It's feature set is specifically designed to help people having difficulty talking to 'speak' through the software's interface. User's click on the icons and the softwares speaks for them through the device. This promising piece of technology will be specially helpful to people with Autism who are non-verbal.

If you not familiar with JCI Philippines, you may know them by their more popular and longstanding name. They used to be called the Philippine Jaycees. The Jaycees have been doing a lot of community work as far back as I can remember. I'm glad to see that they are participating in the cause to help people stricken with Autism. For the full news feature, you can go here: http://globalnation.inquirer.net/cebudailynews/community/view/20100501-267477/Autism-Society-Cebu-gets-iPod-donation.
