Hi folks, sharing this grant information here for a few reasons. Largely because, at least some of you, engage in innovative approaches to access tech. Speaking personally, perhaps the funding can lead to a raised awareness of how command line tools expand access options for many populations. Especially if flexible customizing is included. Thoughts?
