Abstract

In this fun and interactive session participants will learn about how Assistive Technology that can be used to increase, maintain, or improve the functional capabilities of people with disabilities in all aspects of life, including at school, at work, at home, and in the community. Assistive Technology ranges on a continuum from low tech (walkers and bath benches) to high tech (tele-presence, AAC Communication Devices, Smart phone apps). Learn more about how the Area Agencies on Aging in Georgia are using assistive technology options to help meet the needs of the elderly and disabled in their communities instead of placing people on waiting list for services they may never receive.
