Grant Overview

Delaware's workforce landscape is characterized by a strong presence of healthcare and education industries, which can provide opportunities for individuals with disabilities. However, according to the Delaware Department of Labor, individuals with disabilities face significant barriers in accessing assistive technology, which can limit their employment prospects. The assistive technology access program aims to address this issue by establishing a loan program that allows users to try equipment before purchase. Delaware's small size and relatively high population density make it an ideal location for piloting innovative assistive technology solutions. Unlike neighboring states, Delaware's strong corporate presence creates opportunities for partnerships between technology providers and non-profit organizations. Delaware's Workforce Challenges The state's workforce is marked by a shortage of skilled workers in the healthcare and technology sectors. The program will need to address these workforce challenges while promoting the use of assistive technology among individuals with disabilities. By facilitating hands-on experiences with assistive technology, the initiative aims to empower individuals to find the tools that best meet their needs. The Role of Assistive Technology in Delaware's Workforce Delaware's economy is driven by industries that require specialized skills, making assistive technology critical for individuals with disabilities seeking employment. The program will work to promote the use of assistive technology, enhancing employment prospects for disabled residents. By collaborating with technology providers, the initiative aims to create a robust ecosystem that supports the needs of Delaware's diverse workforce.
