Illinois Assistive Technology Program

Demonstration

Wednesday, March 18 2009 at 11:00am

Tom  Ridley, Assistive Technology Demonstration Center Coordinator from Illinois Assistive Technology Program (IATP) in Springfield will be at IVCIL to show and demonstrate a variety of assistive equipment that can be a great help in daily activities such as seeing, hearing, dressing, bathing, reading, etc. The Illinois Assistive Technology Program is a non-profit agency that promotes the availability of assistive technology services and programs for people with disabilities.  IATP serves all people with disabilities in Illinois regardless of age or income, their families, service providers, state agencies, private industry, educators, and other interested individuals.  Assistive technology allows people with disabilities to function independently in recreation, education, vocation and daily activities. Tom Ridley will also discuss the low interest loan program which can assist in the purchase of high cost assistive equipment.
