Assistive Technology Financial Support
Funding for Assistive Technology
Everyone should have the opportunity to access the tools they need to live, learn, work, and thrive. That’s why APTAT is here to help connect Alabama residents with Assistive Technology Financial Support.
While we don’t provide direct financial support, we work closely with partners across the state to guide individuals, families, and professionals toward the right programs, services, and referral options.
APTAT provides:Â
- Information and guidance on potential funding sources
- Connections to local and national programs that offer AT-related financial help
- Referrals to organizations that provide grants, loans, or equipment at no cost
- Support for those needing to understand eligibility for Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, or education-related funding
Last Resort Funding: Partner Highlight – Libby’s Friends
When other funding options aren’t available, Libby’s Friends may be able to help. Libby’s Friends is a last-resort funding program that provides financial support for Assistive Technology to individuals with disabilities across Alabama. Their goal is to make sure no one misses out on life-changing equipment simply because other sources of funding have been exhausted.
