Our History

In 1994, Access Technologies, Inc. (ATI) was established as a nonprofit entity with the aim of carrying forward the initiatives outlined in the Assistive Technology Act of 1998 grant, originally established in 1990.

Today, Oregon’s Statewide Assistive Technology Program is sponsored by Oregon Vocational Rehabilitation Services, and partially funded under a grant by the U.S Department of Health and Human Services; Administration for Community Living (ACL). ATI has continuously served as the implementing entity since 1990, proudly fulfilling all state level and state leadership activities as mandated by Congress.

Providing services throughout the state, these activities are designed to increase the independence of individuals with disabilities and seniors throughout all aspects of life, in their education, employment, community, recreational, housing and transportation.
