Big Impact, Small Investment: The Power of Assistive Technology Act Programs! Did you know that for the past 10 years, every $1 invested in Assistive Technology Act Programs saw a return of $2.22 in savings and benefits?!?That’s a 122% return on investment—all while empowering millions of people with disabilities and older adults! From 2013 to 2023, federal funding of $305M helped serve 6.7 million people, increasing access to life-changing assistive technology. And it doesn’t stop there—an additional $256M was leveraged from outside partnerships to further expand these critical resources. With the 2022 reauthorization of the AT Act, we’re just getting started. Let’s keep advocating for sustainable funding and greater access to assistive technology for all who need it! What are your thoughts on the role of assistive technology in shaping the future for people in need? Share in the comments! #AssistiveTechnology #ReturnOnInvestment #ATActPrograms #AT4All #AgingInPlace #Independence #Impact Picture description: An infographic titled "Assistive Technology Act Programs: Return on Investment (2013 to 2023)" presents data on the impact of federal funding for assistive technology. The Assistive Technology Act was reauthorized in 2022. It provides formula grant funding to 56 states and territories to enhance awareness, create access, and increase AT acquisition for people with disabilities and older adults. Federal Investment and Savings Comparison of Investment: $305 million and Savings & Benefits of $674.8 million Leveraged Funding Increases Access to Assistive Technology: Leveraged Funding of $256 million (46%) and Federal Investment of $305 million (54%) Small Federal Investment - Large Benefits in Return. Return on Investment (ROI) of 122% or $2.22 saved for every $1 spent People Served: 6,698,195 people represented by a graphic of a large crowd of human figures. ATAP Logo on the bottom
