Overview:
Throughout all phases of our clients’ lifespans, helping professionals are tasked with understanding and locating appropriate resources (especially resources that are free or affordable) for their clients who are aging and/or disabled. In this comprehensive overview of assistive technology (AT) resources, helping professionals will enhance their knowledge of free or low-cost options to help their clients of all ages who are disabled or aging. Using a case study model, this training will focus on Georgia’s Tools for Life program as a representative example of AT services, and will also show participants how to locate programs in their states. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of AT, its applications, and how it can significantly improve the lives of individuals with disabilities, including the aging population. Additionally, the course will explore various funding options and provide real-life case scenarios to illustrate the practical use of AT in different situations.
