Can I check assistive technology devices out? If so, how?
Yes, you can check out many of our AT devices, except for our Apple products and a few select other items. You may call, email, or stop by to request a device and IHAT Staff will check it out for you. Up to five (5) items can be checked out for two weeks at a time.
Can I visit with my service recipient or client to the AT Lab?
Yes, of course! All of our equipment is free for you to explore. We encourage people coming in to see what AT would work best to suit their needs. *Please understand that the IHAT Center does not conduct AT Evaluations and make recommendations. You are encouraged to make an appointment with your school district AT personnel or contact NCATP.org if you are in need of an AT evaluation.
