As a leading provider of programs for people with disabilities in our community, Easterseals Crossroads has been providing services for over 80 years. Realizing the tremendous need for people with disabilities to achieve and maintain their greatest levels of independence, we incorporated assistive technology in our employment training programs in 1979. We later opened our Assistive Technology Center at Easterseals Crossroads in 1990 to provide technology solutions for all program areas.</p>
<p>In 2007, Easterseals Crossroads partnered with the State of Indiana Division of Disability and Rehabilitative Services to establish the Indiana Assistive Technology Act (INDATA) Project. The INDATA Project is one of 56 similar, federally-funded projects designed to increase access and awareness of assistive technology.
