Tetra Society of North America - Dalhousie Chapter
At Tetra, our focus is to find solutions to environmental barriers faced by people with disabilities. The society acts as a precursor to being a full-time Tetra volunteer. There are two parts of the society, the administrative side and the design team. If you're interested in volunteering but not designing or budling anything this is the society for you! We will be conducting all organizational and fundraising for the design team on the administrative side. Additionally, if you are looking to build your technical skills with client based projects the design team would be a perfect fit. Rather than approaching a client request alone, you will work with a small group of like minded individuals along with our Mechanical engineering team lead. We intend to work weekly in the makerspace and have access to several other workshops in Halifax.
