Assistive Technologies you may find helpful

This past weekend, I attended the Abilities Expo in Edison NJ. While I was there, I had the opportunity to speak with a couple people from an organization called Advancing Opportunities. This is an organization that provides many types of services to disabled people and their caregivers. I was especially impressed with their Technology Lending center. This program allows people to borrow different types of assistive technologies to try out before investing money into something that may or may not be appropriate for their needs or their child's needs. I also asked if other states offer similar services, and they do. I have provided two links below for your convenience, the first one being for my home state of New Jersey and the other for the services offered in other states. I hope you will find this information useful.
