JAM Card

The JAM Card is a discreet and easy-to-use tool that helps people with non-visible disabilities, learning difficulties, autism, or communication barriers let others know they may need a little extra time, patience, or support. 

Standing for Just A Minute, the card provides a simple, non-verbal way to communicate support needs in everyday situations such as accessing services, travelling, shopping, or visiting public spaces.

Available as both a physical card and a mobile app, the JAM Card promotes greater understanding, independence, and inclusion by helping to break down communication barriers and create more accessible experiences for everyone.

Kildare County Council staff have received JAM Card awareness training and recognise the card as a simple way for visitors to indicate that they may need additional time, patience, or assistance when accessing Council services.
