What is Glide Demo Day?

On Thursday, May 23rd, the Glidance team is thrilled to invite our blind, DeafBlind, and low vision communities to join us for a unique opportunity to meet the Glidance team, hear from their founder, ask questions, and see the latest Glide prototype. This is also a chance to meet fellow Gliders and connect with their incredible community of supporters, advocates, friends and more!
