Project Converge is a Phase I Steppingstones of Innovative Technologies grant awarded to the Center for Literacy and Disability Studies by the Office of Special Education Programs, U.S. Department of Education. The grant is a collaborative effort among the Center, AbleNet, Inc., and Don Johnston, Inc. The three organizations developed new technologies that bring together the existing MEville to WEville Early Literacy and Communication Instructional Program and the Start-to-Finish Literacy Starters. The new scientifically-supported product line The MEville to WEville with Literacy Starters Program is available through both companies.
