Empowertech
The Empowertech was founded in 1986 by a group of parents, professionals and consumers interested in empowering children and adults with disabilities to be productive and independent through the use of technology.
The goal of the Empowertech is to increase awareness, understanding and implementation of assistive technology by children and adults with disabilities.
The Empowertech is a member-center of the Alliance for Technology Access-an international network of over forty ATA centers. The Empowertech is funded largely through grants from local private, public and corporate foundations. Additional support comes from the kind and generous donations of their members, friends and supporters.
The Empowertech services are available for people with disabilities and of all ages. The Empowertech welcomes you to participation and encourages you to:
- Call and make an appointment for a collaborative consultation with one of their computer specialists or for technical assistance
- Become a current Empowertech Member
- Attend one of their workshops, presentations and/or seminars
- Share your expertise regarding hardware, software, adaptive devices and/or funding sources by becoming a CAC volunteer
- Help develop ongoing community support
- Make a charitable donation
The Empowertech serves people based upon need - not income. They do not charge a fee for basic services but they do invite users of the Center to become members. Membership categories begin at $25. Special contract rates are available for agencies, school districts, and employers for in-service training and/or consultation.
