Description: 

TECH TAP 25 celebrated 25 years of Tapping Technology in Maryland. Maryland was one of the first 9 states funded to provide assistive technology services, information and training by USDOE, the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitation. Continuously in operation since 1990, Maryland's Technology Assistance Program has developed innovative equipment loan, recycling, exchange and demonstration programs. It pioneered Audio Description in theaters, with several programs it started active today. Expanding the vision of assistive technology for education and vocational uses, MD TAP conducted adaptive scuba diving, wheelchair dance, ice skating, fishing, sailing, skiing and beach access events. This event celebrated the vision and the accomplishments of a quarter century of adaptation, resilience and invention. "Why be normal?" is our question.
