Voice Activated Laptops for Our Injured Troops, or Project Valor-IT, is a program of Soldiers’ Angels that helps reconnect wounded warriors to the technology they can no longer use due to injury and to help them navigate the world a little easier.
The program provides voice-controlled laptops to wounded warriors to give them back a piece of their life and hope that they can do what they did before, even if they have to do it a bit differently now. In addition to voice-controlled laptops, the Valor-IT program provides active and whole-body video games (like Wii Sports or Xbox Kinect) to help with physical therapy, iPads with tools and applications that help traumatic brain injury patients manage their memory loss and time management skills, and GPS systems to help with the spatial challenges that are common in brain injury patients.
