Assistive Technology (AT) includes any type of equipment or tool that helps people with disabilities function more independently. It can be something as simple as a walker or an adaptive eating utensil, or a high-tech solution such as a motorized wheelchair or a customized computer. We learn what kinds of AT are available to people in Maine who need it, how to access AT, and how the latest advances can help people in new ways. This show is part of our series “Ready & Able: Living With a Disability in Maine.”
