Loan Program
The
Loan Program at the Center for Adaptive Technology runs the outreach
and service of Assistive Technology Demonstrations and Device Loans for
the Connecticut Tech Act Project (http://www.cttechact.com/
Primarily, the LP offers computer technology outfitted with adaptive technology software and/or physical adaptive devices for full computer interaction and control, with each loan package tailored to a client's assessed needs. Assessment of a client is performed through in-person and phone interviews with the client from the Center, in combination with input received by aides, family members, social workers, and assessments performed by outside services (e.g. speech therapists). With each loan, the LP provides instructional support at our facility on the SCSU campus, as well as technical support for all computer hardware and software provided. Laptops can be loaned out to DRC registered Students and to Teachers of Special Education and Technology from Connecticut's public school districts. Some of the software available for installation on a loaned laptop is listed below.
