Navigate Life Texas: Resources for kids with disabilities and special needs
The Center for Literacy and Disability Studies is pleased to announce the development of a growing library of accessible, beginning level readers for students of all ages. Much thanks to the work of Dr. Gary Bishop in the Department of Computer Science, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, this site offers 1 and 2 switch access to books that are being authored by educators, families, and volunteers from around the world. With books for adolescents and adults as well as books for young beginning readers, Tar Heel Reader fills a tremendous need in our efforts to address the literacy learning needs of learners of all ages with disabilities.
