Description

*Information / Counseling / Referrals: This service helps handicapped persons and family members to make decisions on what to do first and where to get help. The people that call us want to know where to start in the jungle of health and rehabilitation agencies. We try to give them the information they need to find a solution for themselves or a family member. *FREE Computers for Visually Impaired Persons.: TCPI provides computers, free of charge, (with a $100 donation) to visually impaired persons. Last year, we shipped 400 computers, bringing the total to 1,540 in five years.
