Meet one of our consumers

We’re happy to see our consumers receive the tools they need!

This is Earle, one of our consumers. Earle received a free iPad tablet through our partnership with the Department of Aging and Adult Services, Digital Connections. If you are in need of any assistive technology devices to help you live independently then please reach out to us and talk to one of our AT specialists.
