About iBUG:

We are a 501(C)(3) non-profit organization whose mission is to promote the individual independence, social integration, and educational development of the blind through accessible technology training.  iBUG has been serving the blind community since May 2011.  

 

In April 2021, iBUG was featured in the nationally renowned technology podcast Blind Abilities,  <https://blindabilities.com/?p=6624> https://blindabilities.com/?p=6624.  We were also awarded the Dr. Jacob Bolotin Award on July 8, 2018, at the National Federation of the Blind National Convention in Orlando, Florida.  The Dr. Jacob Bolotin Award honors individuals and organizations that are a positive force in the lives of blind people and whose work advances the goal of helping transform their dreams into reality.  

 

We provide technology training for the blind through virtual and in-person meetings.  All of our training sessions are recorded and provided on our website, ibugtoday.org <http://ibugtoday.org/> , as well as on YouTube, smart devices, and podcast apps.  iBUG offers twelve group training sessions on iOS, Mac, and Android devices per month.  We also have a one-on-one mentoring program for new iPhone users. All of these services and training are provided free to the blind community.  

 

Additionally, we host nine social events each month including a book club, Star Trek discussion group, independent living skills discussion group, social situations discussion group, and audio-described movie nights.  All of our training and social events are accessible on the Zoom platform.
