Hello! This is Anne Zachry, author and moderator of “Making Special Education Actually Work,” an online publication, produced in blog and podcast form, by KPS4Parents, a nonprofit child and family lay advocacy and consultancy organization focused on learners and workers with disabilities.
I am excited to announce that, because of work I am doing on behalf of one of my direct services clients, I will be participating in an Instagram Live event with the CEO and co-founder of Talkido, one of the technology tools I am using as part of my client’s highly individualized program of intervention. My client has a seizure disorder, intellectual disability, autism, and vision loss. Creating an effective program of intervention given his unique challenges has required some innovation, but I was able to achieve it using affordable, and often inexpensive, resources.
Find out more about how I’ve used tactile icons with auditory tags using Talkido’s technology to teach emotional vocabulary, and how these vocabulary concepts are further supported by personally created AI-generated songs using social scripts and stories as lyrics with the targeted emotional vocabulary terms worked into them by attending our Instagram Live Event on Friday, February 7, 2025, at 5pm PST, which is 8pm EST.

I’m looking forward to answering questions about how I individualized this program, how others can apply the same strategies to individualizing programming for other individuals, and how the technologies I’m using can be used to help others. I hope you can join us on Instagram on Friday, February 7, 2025 at 5pm PST/8pm EST. Thanks for supporting our important work! We look forward to bringing useful information to you.

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
