Opening Worlds - One Computer at a Time


News Room


  • As of December 2011 - 4600 computers have been shipped to date
  • Our work has been widely publicized in magazines for the blind. Last year 15 programs were presented about the organization, including presentations on television and radio, programs at Lion Clubs and senior groups. An article in Advocate Magazine (May 2004) tells the entire exciting saga of Robert Langford's lifelong work on behalf of the visually impaired.

Communications Project

TCVC and Radio and Reading Resources (RRR) have joined together to create stronger communication materials for our introduction of computers to the blind. Using the content provided by TCVC, a communications expert from RRR created audio CDs and cassettes for the computer training tutorials. The result - highly professional audio recordings are now available to explain the learning process necessary for computer proficiency.
