Wake up on time, every time! Struggling with traditional alarms? We have the solution! California Connect offers the Bed Shaker Signaler, a powerful alarm with strong vibrations, bright visual alerts, and sound amplification up to 105 decibels.

We provide more than just alarms, California Connect provides a variety of assistive equipment to Californians with disabilities at no charge. Whether you need help with hearing, vision, speech, mobility, or memory, we have the tools to connect you to the world.

The device is connected to a digital alarm clock displaying 12:41, placed on a table alongside a phone and some potted plants. The text "Bed Shaker Signaler" is displayed at the top in yellow. At the bottom, California Connect’s logo appears with the slogan "Communicate Your Way." Next to the logo, the website "CAConnect.org," the phone number "1-800-806-1191," and a button labeled "ASL NOW" are shown, indicating American Sign Language accessibility.]

We are hosting a fundraiser in collaboration with Inclusion Films, Joey Travolta's local program (you might have heard of his brother John...). Please register to join us and pass the word along to other Grease fans. Registration is only $20 on Eventbright

At this virtual event, Monday August 22nd at 6 pm, we are celebrating 45 years of Grease and honoring the passing of Olivia Newton-John with many Grease cast members, as well as hosting a local music star-- Monty Byrom. Additionally, we have Joe Montagne (Criminal Minds, GodFather) who will speak about his experiences with a child with special needs. And finally, we have an array of silent auction baskets, including signed photos and gift cards for local places.

We are late getting the word out, and we want to make sure people know of this evening.
