The Adler Aphasia center recently received a grant from Verizon Foundation for the third year in a row. This year, Verizon Foundation issued grants to 34 New Jersey nonprofit organizations totaling $110,000. The funds were the result of the generosity of Verizon New Jersey landline customers who participated in the company's Check Into Literacy program. The grant will be used to support the Adler Aphasia Center's new interactive technology that will enable people with aphasia to communicate more effectively.
