  Assistive Technology Division

Addressing the barriers confronted by individuals with disabilities. It is the goal of the Assistive Technology Division to meet the needs and address the barriers confronted by individuals with disabilities. The Assistive Technology Division staff evaluates MDRS clients for the most appropriate assistive technology, thus enabling them to return to work and/or live independently. Picture of individual using assistive technology device. Rapid changes in technology are constantly expanding opportunities for those with disabilities to participate in their communities and in the work place.   MDRS has assumed the lead in assuring that Mississippi citizens with disabilities have maximum access to this technology.   The Assistive Technology Division of MDRS includes an Assistive Technology Coordinator, an Administrative Assistant, a Special Projects Officer, two Rehabilitation Technology Specialists, and eight Rehabilitation Technologists, enabling the agency to provide evaluations and assessments for clients of the Office of Vocational Rehabilitation and the Office of Special Disability Programs throughout the state.   How Can We Help? / Meet the Staff / Helpful Links / Case Studies
