Assistive Technology
Program for Children birth to three years of age
Our Assistive Technology Specialists are assigned to a team of professionals in the Children's Services Division. The specialists provide support to the teams by researching new adaptive devices, software programs, communication aids, developing HyperStudio programs to fit individual needs, supporting families and childcare centers with computer activities and toys with switches.
Assistive Technology may allow your child to access and explore his/her environment in a new and different way.
Tiny Tot Tech Time is a support for our families and team. Children of all abilities, birth to three years old, can come in and experience many different computer programs. The computers are set up at the child's level with touch windows, switches and software that is age appropriate.
The Assistive Technology specialists work with therapists and teachers to meet the needs of children and their families. It's a great community activity for our children.
