35 years ago, the ADA became law, reshaping public life by guaranteeing access and prohibiting disability-based discrimination.

We honor that legacy by continuing to advocate for communications access for all, especially our nation’s Veterans.

Read this inspiring article about Zuby Onwuta, a blind Vetrepreneur who’s transforming accessibility for people with disabilities.
After losing his vision, Zuby created @thinkandzoom, a hands-free solution that uses brainwaves to zoom in or convert text to audio. 💡

[The Clear2Connect Coalition @Clear2Connect]

Zuby credits his success to his military resilience and the support he received through @DAVHQ 's Patriot Boot Camp, which provides Veterans with entrepreneurial skills and mentorship.
