Welcome to Missouri Assistive Technology
At Missouri Assistive Technology, we offer a variety of programs for individuals with disabilities or for individuals experiencing age related changes. Each program plays a role in finding the right match for the individual. Our demonstration centers are great locations to see, try and learn about devices. Agencies and individuals might consider borrowing a device through our ETC program as an option to try out a device. Our TAP, Show Me Loans, KAT and ATR programs are potential sources for acquiring devices. Give us a call, drop us an email and let us know how we can help you become aware of AT for all types of disabilities.
