VR Assistive Technology Assessment
Project Description:
The project is a component of the The 2011-2012 Assistive Technology in Employment Collaborative (ATEC) grant developed by the NATRC in conjunction with the Nevada DETR. The focus is on providing quality AT assessments and equipment to the most severely disabled clients of DETR as well as emphasizing transition students.
The Nevada Assistive Technology Resource Center (NATRC) supports collaborative efforts with the community to bring about wider knowledge and adoption of Asssitive Technology in Nevada. The development of a responsive best-practices based network for the delivery of AT services to unserved and under-served populations in Nevada is a high priority. The NATRC is an active member of the Nevada Assistive Technology Council, and is reponsible for establishing a new accesible social networking website dedicated to increase knowledge, use and access to Assistive Technology in the state of Nevada. The development of an effective and affordable statewide support and training strategy for AT users is a high priority. The NATRC is actively involved with researchers, developers and manufacturers of AT devices to help create innovative AT solutions.
