Ubuntu has built-in tools that make using the computer easier for people with disabilities. You can find these tools by opening the Dash and searching for ``Universal Access,'' or by selecting \menu{Session Indicator \then System Settings\ldots \then Universal Access}. Use the \tab{Seeing} tab to manage the text size, the contrast of the interfaces, enable a zoom tool, a virtual keyboard, a screen reader, and so on. Selecting high-contrast themes and larger on-screen fonts can assist those with vision difficulties. You can activate ``Visual Alerts'' through the \tab{Hearing} tab if you have hearing impairment. You can also adjust keyboard and mouse settings to suit your needs through the \tab{Typing} and \tab{Pointing and Clicking} tabs, respectively. The \tab{Profiles} tab will allow you to enable the Accessibility Profiles Indicator with which you may switch between the following profiles: Minor Motor Difficulties, Screen reader with speech, High Contrast, Braille, and On-screen Keyboard.
