Assistive Technology

Technology is playing an increasing role in our lives, and is starting to have an impact in the lives of people living with disability. In particular, there are increasing conversations in the NDIS and elsewhere about something called Assistive Technology.

Some people love conversations about technology, while other people can find it a bit dry and difficult to understand. But Assistive Technology can make a big difference in people’s lives.

This section looks at what Assistive Technology is, and how peer networks can help their members learn more about then possibilities of Assistive Technology.
