Description
Families and people with disabilities often have difficulty obtaining needed assistive technology due to the complexity of navigating the process, lack of financial resources, and/or inadequate professional competencies. The process of completing an environmental assessment, establishing a strategic plan for a community-based mobility clinic to reduce barriers, and future plans for implementation will be discussed in this poster presentation.Back to Session: Poster Symposium 12: Technology, Assistive Technology, & Universal Design
