(Apr 2017).Task Force for Assisted Technology Research and Application  Dr. Robert Rados, Ph.D., MHA Clinical Instructor, Health Care Management  Individuals with disabilities face many challenges and barriers associated with activities of quality daily living. Assisted technology is helping to reduce many barriers, including computing technology associated with searching for information and communicating with others. Students, faculty, and people of our local community have a desire and need to stay connected, to learn and enjoy the benefits of access to the internet.   This proposal is intended to establish a task force to promote assisted technology research and the application of existing assistive methods for those in need. As our society is aging, disability is becoming more common and user friendly assistive technologies can help everyone. New assisted technology methods are also needed.  The task force can bring together experts from across-campus and from the local community to address the present and future challenges and benefits of assisted technology research and application.
