Vermont Assistive Technology Program | Waterbury Tryout Center

The Vermont Assistive Technology Program (VATP) is Vermont’s federal AT Act Program, managed by the Department of Disabilities, Aging and Independent Living and partnering with the Center on Disability and Community Inclusion (CDCI) at the University of Vermont. The VATP provides AT Services to Vermonters across the state, with a mission to support full access and integration for Vermonters with disabilities and aging related needs in education, work and their communities. Our vision is to ensure everyone’s potential is supported holistically and each Vermonter is provided with opportunities for independence and self-determination, by incorporating Assistive Technology across all systems to create access to every environment in our state. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services: Administration for Community Living regulates the AT Act programs, which help individuals of all ages find accessible solutions to overcome barriers at home, work, and in the community as related to disability and aging related needs. The Waterbury Tryout Center is one of three regional AT Tryout Centers run by CDCI. If you do not reside in Vermont, you can locate your state’s AT Act Program at the Association of Assistive Technology Act Programs (ATAP).
