Ershig Assistive Technology Resource Center

Welcome!

The Ershig Assistive Technology Resource Center (E-ATRC), currently located in Miller Hall 001, contains a collection of over three hundred Assistive Technology (AT) items, equipment and products, with a focus on technology supports for students with diverse learning needs in preschool through grade 12.

Assistive Technology (AT) is defined by federal law (IDEA '97 and ADA) as:

"any item, piece of equipment, or product...whether acquired commercially, something modified, or custom made...that is used to increase, maintain, and/or improve the functional capability of individuals with disabilities."

Assistive Technologies are now available and affordable to meet the diverse needs of a wide range of individuals in our society, not just those with severe disabilities.

For more information, browse the E-ATRC Database to view our current inventory, or explore the additional links to the left.
