Bangalore, 7 July 2024 – At just 17 years old, Aarna Bhammar is making a significant contribution by creating “Voice Your Ability,” a non-profit organization dedicated to aiding differently-abled individuals, particularly the visually impaired, in finding employment opportunities. By leveraging technology and innovative thinking, Aarna is breaking down barriers that have long hindered the differently-abled from accessing employment opportunities.

Since her childhood, Aarna has been surrounded by visually impaired friends. These friends, who are equally accomplished, never got to dream the same dreams as everyone else. They were not encouraged to focus on getting a career in the future. She decided to make it her mission to highlight the “ability” in the word “disability” and prove that differently-abled people can have careers too.

Aarna has achieved this by integrating her mission with technology and using her passion for coding. She has released one of the first-ever easy-to-use applications to help promote employability for differently-abled people. The journey began with an initial prototype, followed by three months of rigorous testing in partnership with organizations across Bangalore, the primary organization being Mitra Jyoti [ https://mitrajyothi.org/ ]. The app, now launched, features enhancements based on feedback from users with various disabilities.

One of the standout features of “Voice Your Ability” is its use of conversational AI to simplify the resume-building process for the disabled. This cutting-edge technology guides users through creating professional resumes, ensuring they can present their skills and experiences effectively.

Additionally, the platform can be voice or text-based and offers job listings, application assistance, and personalized support to bridge the gap between employers and job seekers with disabilities. It also provides multilingual capabilities. These accessible tools and resources help the differently-abled secure jobs, fostering independence and enhancing their quality of life.

However, Aarna’s dedication extends beyond the digital realm. Using her leadership skills, Aarna has brought together a passionate community of volunteers and supporters, all working towards creating a more inclusive job market. These volunteers help individuals achieve the skills required for a job through workshops that teach basic computer skills and advanced coding skills through summer camps.

Furthermore, she engages with employers to advocate for inclusive hiring practices and raise awareness about the value of a diverse workforce, including the unique perspectives and skills that differently-abled individuals bring to their organizations. Her efforts foster a more equitable job market where everyone, regardless of their abilities, has the chance to succeed.

Through this innovative approach and dedication, Aarna Bhammar is proving that young leaders can drive substantial social change. “Voice Your Ability” not only empowers individuals but also promotes broader awareness of the importance of accessibility and inclusion in the workforce.
