About this Event
Florida Alliance for Assistive Services and Technology (FAAST) is Florida’s FREE assistive technology (AT) program.
Assistive Services are any service that directly assists an individual with a disability in the selection, acquisition, or use of an assistive technology device. An AT device is any item, piece of equipment or product system used to increase or improve functional capabilities of individuals with disabilities.
