"Our son struggles with communicating his needs a great deal. He was becoming more angry and unhappy. Since receiving this iPad he has been much calmer and is showing progress. We have downloaded Tobiidynavox app, and are hoping this is the right match for him. He lit up when he first saw the app. He understood we are really trying to help him. Thank you so much for this device. It is very meaningful."

"Since my son has the iPad, he has learned new words and he is learning to communicate better. He feels happy and he no longer has difficult days like before when he could not express his feelings. Thank you the donors and the Arc of Illinois for this help. Thank you for making my son happy."

"He feels more independent and that he can be the same as other boys"
