What is the Idaho Assistive Technology Project?

The Idaho Assistive Technology Project (IATP) is a federally funded program administered by the Center on Disabilities and Human Development at the University of Idaho.  Our goal is to increase the availability of assistive technology devices and services for older persons and Idahoans with disabilities.

Idaho Assistive Technology's Goal

To help Idahoans with disabilities acquire the assistive technology they need to live more independent lives.

What are Assistive Devices?

Assistive Technology is any device or piece of equipment that helps individuals with disabilities and older persons to lead independent and productive lives.

What Assistive Services do we Offer?

We provide information and assistance, a used equipment exchange, an alternative financing program, assistive technology support for schools, and training events across Idaho.  Please contact us at 1-800-432-8324 for more information!
