How is AT for post-secondary education or for a job funded?
State vocational rehabilitation (VR) agencies are a major funding source for AT for working-age individuals with disabilities. In Massachusetts, VR services are available through the Massachusetts Rehabilitation Commission (MRC) which serves individuals with most physical and mental disabilities, and the Massachusetts Commission for the Blind (MCB) which serves individuals who are legally blind. College AT needs may also be provided if classes are a clear part of an individual’s vocational goals. Learn more about VR services at Fund Your AT for Work.
