I went to our state's Assistive Technology Expo, and learned quite a lot,
and had a chance to "test drive" some of the technology that I have been
wanting to get my mitts on, smile. Anyway. In the process of getting
information in the exhibit hall I came across an organization in
Pennsylvania that has low interest loans for assistive technology at a very
low interest rate.
I had Heard that other states have this type of set up, I saw an article
about Massachusetts what other states offer such a grant program?
Pennsylvania's is under the Pennsylvania assistive Technology Association.
I am curious, as this is a wonderful resource for technology funding, and
yet, it is a loan that can be paid back. Especially for people out of the
Rehabilitation system. And who don't have a lot of collateral, to put up
for a standard loan.
