You dream it. We help fund it.

The App Factory’s annual Request For Proposals (RFP) is now CLOSED for 2023. Each year we expect to fund software and hardware developers to develop and release their assistive and accessibility apps for health and function. 

If you are interested in submitting a proposal, please email John Morris, PhD, FACRM at john.morris@shepherd.org.
