The center’s construction was possible thanks to a grant from digital accessibility firm SSB BART Group — which will launch its new corporate brand Level Access in the coming months. The new location allows AbleGamers to increase the number of people with disabilities that the charity can serve, beginning with free one-on-one consultations with leading accessibility experts and in-person custom gaming demonstrations. Open to the public every Thursday, the AbleGamers Center for Inclusive Play is twice the size of the previous facility.
The AbleGamers Center for Inclusive Play is also outfitted with a dedicated 3D printer room for in-house development and customization of assistive gaming technologies, as well as a studio for charitable live stream events and video content production.
If you think you or someone you know may benefit from AbleGamers, disability support consultations can be scheduled, and you can explore grant options for securing free-of-charge accessibility controls and peripherals.
