Who We Are |
 The Department of the Interior's (DOI) Accessible Technology Center (ATC) was established in June, 2000 to support employees with disabilities. In October 2007, the ATC became a part of the Departmental Office of Civil Rights to better align its program with other strategic initiatives to improve the quality of work-life for employees with disabilities. The ATC supports employees with disabilities by
by determining the appropriate assistive technology and ergonomic solutions for the individual. These accommodations enable employees with disabilities to equal access to information technology that is essential in today's workplace. |
 Our Mission |
| To support employees with disabilities by determining
the appropriate assistive technology and ergonomic solutions
tailored to the needs of each individual. |
What We Do |
| The Accessible Technology Center has 4 workstations
available for hands-on demonstrations and evaluations of assistive
technologies. Each of the workstations is geared to the
demonstration of products that provide accommodations for a
particular category of disability. There is a station for vision,
hearing, cognitive, mobility/dexterity impairments. There are a variety of ergonomic
keyboards, seating, monitors, and "point and click" devices
such as alternative mice and trackballs at each workstation.
