This special is part of UPR’s ongoing series Project Resilience. Project Resilience is made possible with support from the Utah State University Center for Persons With Disabilities.
Today we’ll feature a special program about how seniors and people with disabilities are using technology during the pandemic. From getting hooked up to the internet for the first time, to building community virtually to the hurdles and expanded opportunities of remote work.
We’ll also talk to the special’s host and reporter Shoshannah Buxbaum. Later in the program we’ll hear from Sachin Pavithran. He recently started a new position as the executive director of the U.S. Access Board. He’s been working in the field of accessibility for people with disabilities for the past two decades.
