This article presents the results of a 4-year project to develop and test a model for integrating technology into a multi-agency community human services delivery system. “Technology” in this sense refers to both information technology and assistive technology. The project focused on systems change rather than on the creation of comprehensive assistive technology services. Several strategies of the model were developed and tested by the project. The project developed an information/communication tier that lay on top of the existing service delivery system. The information/communication tier was provided to agencies through an electronic network and searchable database, assistive technology advice-giving software, a public awareness campaign, and professional training. The results of these strategies are used to illustrate the Community Assistive Technology Services Network (CATSN) model. The model consists of five modules: 1) client assessment and technology examination, 2) professional and client training and technical assistance, 3) information and referral and needs analysis, 4) special projects, and 5) central coordination and facilitation—the hub. This model is important given recent nationwide initiatives for using assistive technology to provide people with disabilities opportunities for maximum independence, productivity, and integration. |
