Could This Happen in Your Program?: The Podcast
Assistive Technology and Accessibility for Job Seekers
In celebration of Disability Rights & Employment Awareness Month (DREAM), this episode features a discussion with two specialists in assistive technology. We explore how assistive technology (AT) can aid individuals with disabilities not only in their careers but also in their personal and leisure activities.
We’ll define what we mean by assistive technology devices, demonstrate how these tools can enhance the success and independence of individuals with disabilities in the workplace, and showcase some examples of AT devices. Additionally, we will introduce you to the Technology Related Assistance for Individuals with Disabilities (TRAID) program, which offers free loans of AT devices to any New Yorker living with a disability.
