We Need Your Help!
Donate Now
Ability Media needs your help to support our growth. We are a nonprofit because we are part of Quinnipiac University. As such, we rely on donations, grants and fundraising to help fund our operations. Any donations will go to help our student-based staff do their jobs.
CRIS Radio
As Connecticut’s talking newsstand for the blind and print-challenged, it is the mission of CRIS Radio to provide the highest quality, electronic reading service in the state.
CRIS helps enhance the quality of life of its listeners by providing access to the same printed news and information that their family, friends, classmates, and colleagues enjoy.
It is our current goal to become a national model for other radio-reading services.
