When NDIA talks about assistive technology, we mean equipment, technology, and devices that help you do things you can’t do because of your disability.

Assistive technology includes items designed to improve your daily life and help you do everyday activities. It may also help you do something more easily or safely.

In this presentation we will cover:
What assistive technology is

How it can support independence and safety.
Examples of assistive technology.
How to access assistive technology through the NDIS.
