UCP is pleased to offer you a booklet developed by Neighborhood Legal Services National Assistive Technology Project and UCP. This booklet contains the most up-to-date information on funding assistive technology through the health system. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 1997 (IDEA) offers many exciting opportunities to support students with disabilities, family members and school personnel through the use of assistive technology. UCP is pleased to provide with you a comprehensive document that gives you with the most current information on the state of the law and AT funding. This document should provide you with a working knowledge of the relevant laws, regulations and interpretations of them as they relate to a school district's obligations under the law.  We hope you find this publication useful and find it useful in helping families and students with disabilities gain access to technology.
