[CABS-Talk] Tech Camp - Vista Center Santa Cruz

[Amy Jine]

Hi all,

Here's the updated info for our annual tech camp

I've also attached the flier for those who are interested.

Vista Center Santa Cruz is excited to invite you to a free week-long
technology summer camp! Technology is rapidly changing our world, enabling
us to connect, message, and access more than we ever dreamed! This camp is
a chance to ensure your student stays current on all thing’s technology,
just like their sighted peers. The coolest part? Each student will receive
their very own iPad and other goodies so the learning can continue long
after the camp concludes!

The Technology Camp includes:

·       Personalized and fun training in assistive technology including
iPad accessibility features, typing, common access applications, and
various software skills (ie. internet search, navigation, or email).

·       Experience a “Day in the Life” of accessibility professionals
within Silicon Valley, previous excursions include touring Google, Amazon,
and Netflix.

·       Meet adult mentors who also have vision loss, sharing career paths
and favorite technology tools

·       Nutritional lunches provided daily

·       A small group setting that is tailored to the needs of each student

Each student will learn:

·       Lifelong technology skills enabling them to succeed in school,
career, and personal endeavors

·       New friendships with other students their age

·       Possible career paths that will inspire them to dream big and real
world tips on how to achieve their own goals

We are thrilled to be offering this summer camp for the fourth year in a
row! A very special thank you to the Monterey Peninsula Foundation for
enabling our students to learn these vital skills!
