Barry heard about Northwest Access Fund at a mobility dealership a few years ago: he needed a motorized reclining chair that could support his weight so that he could raise his legs while seated, stand up and down more easily, and to help prevent edema. This past year he applied for another loan with us to purchase a new scooter to better get around. His previous scooter was a used one given to him by a friend, but it was no longer reliable, and he was having to pay increasing costs for repairs and new batteries. He felt that the money would be better off going toward a new scooter. After a bankruptcy in 2010 related to a lawsuit from Social Security – which was nevertheless settled in his favor – Barry had a low credit score and limited access to credit. Today, Barry lives frugally on a very limited income. He keeps a close eye on expenses, budgets well, and keeps a cushion in his account for unexpected expenses. Our flexible underwriting approach meant that we could see Barry’s whole financial picture and that we could ultimately approve him for a loan together with a monthly payment that fit well within his budget. A loan with us was the only way Barry had access to this much-needed technology that ensures he can easily do his groceries, meet up with friends around Portland, and go to church. He says that it affects all aspects of his life: “This scooter makes my life what it is.”

Ms. Martin has a son who has Autism and is non-verbal. The family visited the Oregon Statewide AT Device Loan Program to explore speech communication devices and applications (apps). After exploring a number of options, they decided to borrow a standard size tablet, along with a specific app that would allow her son to type out his communication needs. At the conclusion of the loan period, Ms. Martin shared that thanks to the AT Program, they were able to show her son’s IEP team the benefits of the app and were even able to get their insurance to cover both the tablet and the app for his communication needs at home.

Mr. Sylvester is currently employed in the custodial industry, where his job tasks include routine cleaning tasks such as janitorial work and cleaning offices, as well as miscellaneous tasks. Mr. Sylvester shared that he experiences difficulties with getting to work sites in a timely manner. He contacted ATI seeking information and a demonstration on aids that could assist with this need. Since he already has a smartphone the demonstration showed him where the built-in reminders and calendar apps are located on his device. Next he tried a variety of smartwatches that would pair with his smartphone and alert him to the reminder. After demonstrating the apps and the smartwatches he found these devices could help him with his memory recall and reminder needs and was therefore provided information on where he could acquire a smartwatch and the importance of having training on the smartwatch once he acquired one.

Describe innovative one high-impact assistance training activity conducted during the reporting period:
The Oregon AT Program partnered with the ADRC of Oregon to empower consumer independence, by connecting consumers with assistive technology. In March the OSATP provided an in-depth training to the ADRC staff statewide, highlighting a wide-range of AT devices designed to allow individuals to remain in their homes and increasing attendees overall understanding about services the AT Program provides. Based on the results of this training, the Oregon AT Program and ADRC developed an MOU to further expand services; providing ADRC representatives specific access to the Oregon AT Program Device Demonstration equipment.
Breifly describe one training activity related to transition conducted during the reporting period:
The OSATP staff attended the Developmental Disability Services Resource Fair along the Oregon Coast to assist students transitioning to college and the workforce. The OSATP Specialists trained parents and professionals on various AT to assist students with a wide range of disabilities.
Breifly describe one training activity related to Information and Communication Technology accessibility:
OSATP staff provided ICT training to a group of educational professionals and administrators. During the training, participants learned how to create accessible primary documents to pass on to parents, colleagues, and the public. On hand were approximately twenty administrators whose primary interest was in making PDF files readable by people with visual impairments and learning disabilities, as well as considerations when building multimedia presentations and videos.

Throughout the year, OSATP Specialists have provided ongoing technical assistance to a rural Health Services Organization, including setting up voice recognition software and customization of their computer systems; allowing employees with disabilities to more easily complete their data tasks.
Breifly describe one technical assistance activity related to transition conducted during the reporting period:
The OSATP staff provided ongoing technical assistance to Oregon’s ADRC Program to develop an Assistive Technology Guidebook for case managers to use while meeting with consumers who have transitioned from nursing facilities back to living in their homes.
