- Are you curious about how Assistive Technology (AT) can improve and enhance your everyday living?
This webinar takes a tour of the realm of Assistive Technology in the context of the NDIS - but BIG disclaimer, this webinar won’t be able to tell you what Assistive Technology will help you in your specific circumstances. Sometimes there are no definitive black and white answers about what will be funded and what won’t, or even what the exact process for access is - as each time, what’s needed comes down to you, the participant, and your specific needs, goals and circumstances. What we hope you get out of this webinar is a spark of interest, some resources and the motivation to seek out what Assistive Technology can do for you to help create a sense of sustainable independence that might’ve been otherwise, out of reach.
Today’s webinar has been created in conjunction with Kinora’s Content Partner, The Chooze Shop, an Assistive Technology Marketplace with built in NDIS functionality.
