“For people without disabilities, technology makes things easier. For people with disabilities, technology makes things possible.” Assistive Technology (AT) at Easterseals DuPage & Fox Valley improves the functional capabilities of individuals with disabilities through implementation strategies and technology software/products. Our primary focus is Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) for individuals with complex communication needs.
AAC includes all forms of communication that are used to supplement or replace oral speech to express thoughts, needs, wants and ideas. AAC allows children to communicate more easily and, in doing so, reduces frustrations for the individual and his or her family. Our department is comprised of assistive technology specialists including licensed speech-language pathologists and occupational therapists. Our services include augmentative communication evaluations, individualized interventions, consultations, communication system development, in-services, trainings and more.
Doctors continually refer children to our AT department because our staff is comprised of experts who use both high and low-technology strategies to help each child succeed. We have a Speech-Language Therapy department and we have access to communication and technology devices from leading manufacturers. We are able to use, recommend and customize systems to meet the needs of each individual child. We provide center-based therapy, teletherapy and home-based therapy for children in the Early Intervention program. We also offer school-based services through contracts with individual schools or districts.
