About the AT Mentors (ATMs)

AT Mentors are professionals with lived experience of having or living with a person with disabilities using assistive technology (AT).
ATMs assist others by mentoring and supporting them in making informed choices about their AT and home mods needs. ATMs are certified through robust training to complement their lived experience as a person living with a disability, or a primary carer of a person(s) living with disability.

AT Mentors are supported by the allied health professionals at Assistive Technology Australia
