|
Augusta, Maine: A new web resource has been launched by the Maine CITE Program, the state’s Assistive Technology Program. Get AT Stuff will help families, people with disabilities, seniors and the public to buy and sell used assistive technology and adaptive equipment. The site is designed to get devices that are no longer being used into the hands of people who want them and could benefit from them. Items can be listed for sale or free. The site has many equipment categories such as vision, hearing, mobility, environmental adaptations, computers, recreation, sports, and adapted vans/vehicles. “I think that people in Maine will really benefit from this new resource” said Eric McVay of Hampden. “I went to www.getATStuff.com and found a new mouse for my computer. This new website will help people with disabilities get more devices and equipment.” Visit Get AT Stuff to browse or to list your own items for sale.
