Statement

As a longtime member of the Carleton University community I have watched NCF grow and change. I recall talking with Dave Sutherland about NCF and that was my first exposure to the concept of community accessible computing/communicating.

As a public safety educator I have been exposed to the various community needs and challenges of persons with special needs and I see NCF as providing a valuable service to all persons regardless of economic status or particular interest.

As a person I want to see NCF not only continue to provide a valuable service but to help in NCF stability and growth.
