ASSISTIVE-SERVICES
Assistive Services, a non-profit organization, is committed to providing advanced assistive technology services to individuals with disabilities at reasonable fees.  We do not seek profits but only reasonable compensation for our staff.  You will find our fee surprisingly affordable.  And we are experienced and know how to use freeware and shareware to significantly reduced the cost of computer based support.

  The Process

1.  Most basic computer based solutions can be determined in from 1 - 2 hours in your home.  This can be accomplished in tandem with your other professionals such as physicians and therapists or with their recommendations.  

2.  After client approval and purchase of  necessary equipment -  devices, hardware and software are brought to your home on a second visit.  This visit may take 2 - 3 hours in most situations to set-up, configure and test equipment. 

3.  Software and devices are provided at cost to the client.  There is no profit mark up for Assistive Services.  Used computers are generally available at very reasonable prices.  


  Our Mission

Our organization is dedicated to making a contribution to the field of disabilities in general by the dissemination of information through training programs, conferences, workshops, seminars, and electronic media, and may also conduct applications-oriented research as a means of improving the lives of persons with disabilities and the professional skills of those who work with them.

Our staff has extensive assistive technology experience having provided many years of assistive technology services to the general public and as the sole contractual service supplier to the Clark County School District, the 8th largest in the nation - and servicing over 175 schools.
