From Twinkle to Wrinkle – Assistive Technology supports people throughout the lifespan!

Assistive Technology is not just about disability – it’s about independence at every stage of life. This includes people who have temporary, intermittent, and progressive disabilities. It also includes those aging into disability and those who do not yet identify as having a disability!

Contact our supportive staff at the DC Assistive Technology Resource Center (202) 547-0198, ext. 137 if you need assistance identifying products or strategies to improve your function, independence, and productivity at home, work, school, or in the community. ⁠
⁠
Consumers can schedule appointments to tour our assistive technology center to see product demonstrations. We are making independence possible!

Meet Mr. Hill, an entrepreneur and the founder of Telesox! Take a minute to help support his business and cast your vote for Mr. Hill to become the Entrepreneur of Impact, appear in Entrepreneur Magazine, and win $25,000!

In his own words, "If awarded $25,000, I would use the funding to finalize manufacturing and produce the first large production run of TeleSox™. The investment would support materials, production, packaging, and outreach to government agencies and institutions that rely on shared communication devices. This would allow us to move from prototype to scale and deliver a practical hygiene solution to workplaces, correctional facilities, and public environments."
