When Mitch Delaney retired after 50 years with the IRS, she didn't just leave her job behind. She lost access to the technology that helped her stay connected and get things done independently.
Through iCanConnect, Mitch received JAWS, a laptop, an iPhone, and the training to make them work for her. Today, she's back to coordinating workshops, connecting with family and friends, and staying active in her community.
