The 4to24 app is a free resource for parents of children and youth who are blind, have low vision, or are deaf-blind with additional disabilities. It covers ages 4 to 24 years, to go from preschool age into young adulthood and early career.
We created the 4to24 app to help parents be informed, knowledgeable, and empowered. We know that parents’ expectations for what their child can accomplish can have a great impact on a child’s future, and that sometimes, knowing what services or resources to seek out or advocate for can be half the battle. The app provides parents with information, activities, and links to resources on skills and experiences that would be helpful for their child as he or she grows.
The 4to24 app’s information is provided in two general formats: one focused on children and youth who are blind or have low vision, and another focused on deaf-blind children and youth who may also have additional disabilities. Follow the links below to learn more:

Modules of information are delivered from the app over time based on things such as the child’s age or experiences. The modules are self-paced (no deadlines!), so parents can use the information at their convenience.
The app is free to access. To sign up, parents can download the app and create an account by registering as a new user.
The app is available on the iOS App Store and on Google Play.
