    Featured Customer: Easter Seals

    Easter Seals Crossroads Assistive Technology Center is Indiana’s most well-established and largest provider of AT services. Founded in 1979, this CARF-accredited program provides computer access and job accommodation to approximately 500 individuals each year, with combined AT services reaching over 1,000 people each year.

    All professional AT staff members are highly credentialed and certified. Provided services include assessment, recommendation, installation, training, and 24/7 technical support. In addition to its AT equipment loan program housed on-site at Easter Seals Crossroads, the Assistive Technology Center utilizes a mobile classroom to bring hands-on AT services directly to the consumer. Last year the Assistive Technology Center was designated an official Microsoft Accessibility Resource Center (MARC), the first of its kind in Indiana.

    One of the hallmark advantages of the Easter Seals Crossroads AT program is its Assistive Tech Team, a group that meets regularly to “brainstorm” best methods for individual consumer’s needs. “Tech Team” members include Rehab Technologists and Trainers, Physical and Occupational Therapists, Speech Pathologists, Physicians, Nurses, case managers and vocational specialists.

    Mid-2007 heralded the expansion of the Indianapolis-based Easter Seals Crossroads Assistive Technology Center to eight additional regional offices throughout Indiana: South Bend, Terre Haute, Merrillville, Ft. Wayne, Bloomington, Richmond, Evansville, and New Albany. This program growth allows for far greater computer access and more convenient job accommodation services for the citizens of Indiana.
