Saint John of God Community Services are holding two information sessions for families, careers and parents on useful Apps and a quick how to guide for iPad's. iPads are already extremely popular and now they’re being used even more because of a pilot project set up earlier this year at Saint John of God Community Services using them to help people with disabilities. “Popular for its features and apps, it offers dynamic and cost-effective tools,” states The Arc —the USA’s largest community-based advocacy group for people with disabilities. People with intellectual disabilities nationwide are using iPads as a tool to help them practice their cognitive-functioning skills for self-sufficiency. Endless apps exist that teach people how to perform daily tasks using video and/or step-by-step instructions. It’s a great resource that people with intellectual disabilities of all ages can use in their own homes without needing to be with a caregiver at a care site.
