CCB GTT Program
Recognizing the tremendous benefit that accessible technology presents to those with limited or no vision, the Canadian Council of the Blind (CCB) was quick off the mark to establish a program called Get Together with Technology (GTT). For the past 77 years, the CCB has survived on the strength of peer support and peer mentoring. Who knows more about being blind than people who are blind, after all. As accessible technology and its exciting future started to emerge, the CCB applied the same peer support/mentoring philosophy to the CCB GTT program and a vibrant tech support program was born.
