"The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight.  The 
real problem is the misunderstanding and lack of education that 
exists.  If a blind person has the proper training and 
opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a mere physical 
nuisance."
-- Kenneth Jernigan (President, National Federation of the Blind, 
1968-1986

 The I C.A.N.  Foundation helps blind and visually impaired youth 
in Maryland say "I can," by empowering them through providing 
assistive technology and scholarships to camps and conventions 
which help them be equal with their sighted peers.  For more 
information about the Foundation and to support our work, visit

Hi Ashley,

NVDA portable can be installed onto a USB flash drive, which 
makes
it portable.

 Hi Carly
 NVDA has a portable version, which allows you to have your
 TTS/settings, and entire screen reader with you to connect to 
any
 Windows PC in the world and make it accessible.

 I use this a lot, such as at library, tech lab, school, various 
other
 places, where there are computers.

 It's extremely incredible and amazing that it's possible to walk 
up to
 any Windows PC and use it.

 Good morning, Kevin,

          What are the specifics, of using NVDA? There are times 
I
 need WindowEyes but it is problematic IE not my machine so NVDA,
 would be perfect.

I use NVDA as my primary/main screen reader.  There once was a 
time
when I did use JAWS, but it's been over a year, and I'm very glad 
that
I've stopped using it, and am using NVDA full-time.  It's 
extremely
fast, accurate, reliable, innovative, non-intrusive, free, has a
portable version making any Windows PC in the world accessible, 
and
developed by blind people.

 Thanks for sharing.  I will download now.  I use JAWS, but this 
has been
 my
 temporary screen reader in case something goes wrong.
