Say It With Us...FREE!🗣️

Communication is a fundamental right, but the high cost of speech communication devices can often be a barrier to connection. Our High Tech Assistive Technology Reuse program is here to bridge that gap.

We offer a selection of gently used, high-quality communication devices—from basic dedicated tablets to advanced eye-gaze systems—at no charge. By choosing "re-homed" technology, you aren’t just saving money; you’re giving these powerful tools a second life and ensuring someone gets heard.

What’s available?

• High-Tech AAC Devices: Tablets pre-loaded with industry-standard communication software.
• Low-Tech AAC: Programmable buttons with levels for multi-message storage.
• Simple Digitized Devices: Easy-to-use "go-talk" buttons for quick interactions.

Ready to find the right fit?

All devices are sanitized, cleared of previous data, and tested to ensure they are ready for their next chapter.

Don't let the conversation stop—let’s keep talking, one device at a time.
