This project’s goal was to develop and implement a low-tech assistive technology kit in collaboration with the Seven Hills Foundation. The kit will be used to assemble AT solutions to help these individuals achieve independence. We conducted site assessments and assembled solutions with the staff and participants of Seven Hills. Ultimately, we found that our kit will not be beneficial to all participants due to the variation of disabilities between each individual and will need to be personalized.
