LATAN is asking for help promoting The AT Marketplace: Louisiana's Assistive Technology Classifieds. Many of you may be new to the world of assistive technology device reutilization and haven't heard about this exchange site. Please help spread the word.

The AT Marketplace is an online equipment reutilization database that helps citizens with disabilities and older people with functional limitations find affordable assistive technology devices and equipment. The Louisiana Assistive Technology Access Network (LATAN) does not profit from the sale of listed devices. Those with devices they no longer need, agencies with equipment no longer being used, or vendors with returned or overstocked equipment can list all available devices for use in education, employment, and community living environments, and connect with the consumers interested in finding these resources. For those without Internet access, LATAN helps to facilitate the exchange between those who need it and those who have it to give away or sell at a reduced price for those without internet access.

 

To register, go to The AT Marketplace site, click "I've read and accept the terms" to go to the next page. Click "register" and it should be easy from there. You can register even if you don't have items to sell or give or find. You create your username and password to be in the system, and can then sign up for alerts or bookmark items. If you don't have email, you can call LATAN to have your account information entered for you. Call Ora'Setta or Jamie at 225-925-9500 or 800-270-6185 (Voice/TDD).
