In a partnership with AT&T, Aira and the National Federation of the Blind are Expanding the Back-To-School Program for Blind College students.
According to program organizers, 53% of blind college students reach sophomore year, and less than half of blind students finish school because of the challenges of adjusting to campus life.
So in 2017 AT&T, Aira and the National Federation of the Blind (NFB) gave Aira smart glasses to 100 students, and now it’s expanding to include 300 students this year.
