Neil Squire Society
Neil Squire Society is a Canadian national not-for-profit organization that empowers Canadians with disabilities through advocacy, computer-based assistive technology, research and development, and various employment programs.
== History ==
Neil Squire Society began as a result of Bill Cameron (Founder, Neil Squire Society)'s efforts with his relative Neil Squire. When Neil was paralyzed from the neck down in a car accident in 1980, Bill created a “sip-and-puff” machine to allow Neil to communicate using Morse Code. Soon thereafter, Bill and a small group of volunteers began teaching other rehabilitation patients to use computers to enhance their independence. This marked the creation of the Neil Squire Society’s first program, Computer Comfort.
After Neil’s death in 1984, this group decided to name their new organization in his honour. The group was originally incorporated as the Neil Squire Rehabilitation Society, then the Neil Squire Foundation. The group went through one more name change and is now Neil Squire Society.
Headquartered in Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada, Neil Squire Society now has offices in Moncton, Fredericton, Ottawa, and Regina.
