The Maryland Assistive Technology Guaranteed Loan Program helps Maryland residents with disabilities and their families qualify for low - interest loans to buy equipment that helps them live, work, and learn more independently. Download their program brochure for more information ( Inside | Outside )

AT:LAST, the MD A.T. Co-op collaborates with the Loan Program to save consumers. We recommend:
(1.) Have an A.T. evaluation and/or "test drive" A.T. to determine the best device for your needs.
(2.) Contact the A.T. Co-op to see if we can get you a discounted price on your selection
(3.) Contact the Guaranteed Loan Program for a low interest loan

School systems and Private schools are now able to contract with the Maryland A.T. Co-op for Individual AT Evaluations (for Low Incidence Disabilities). Click the title bar to find out more!
