Millions of Canadians live with at least one disability. Through the Assistive Tech for Good™ program, TELUS and Neil Squire Society are ensuring people have access to the assistive technology they need to independently connect to the digital world.
TELUS’ Assistive Tech for Good™ aims to help Canadians with disabilities use smartphones and
