Social Justice Reading Group recently read Alice Wong's Disability Visibility and was inspired to take action to help the disability community.
World Usability Day (November 14th) asks us to consider how things can be improved to create a better world for all. Designers can play a critical role in addressing these challenges by developing solutions to improve the human condition and make the world more just.
Come view assorted 3-D-printed assistive devices and browse our library of files (free patents) that can help people with disabilities. Items can include aids to hold a pen, open a can of soda, or make buckling a seatbelt easier.
Do you or someone you know have a need? We can help you find a free patent. We can then book you for time with the Makerspace 3-D printer to create your assistive device.
