Webinar Assistive Technology & Neurodiversity
Empowering Older Adults with the Right Tools

Assistive Technology (AT) is incredibly valuable for people of all ages—yet it’s often only associated with students. In reality, AT can be just as important for older adults; even more so if you have dyslexia, dyscalculia, or dysgraphia—Assistive Technology can be especially empowering

How often do we hear someone say, “I don’t know how to use my phone or computer—I just ask the grandchildren!” But not everyone has tech-savvy family around, and that can leave us feeling stuck and frustrated.

If you’re neurodiverse—or live with dyslexia, dyscalculia, or dysgraphia—Assistive Technology can be especially empowering. These tools are designed to support your unique learning needs and make everyday tasks easier and more accessible.

This free webinar is ideal for older adults looking to build confidence with technology. While it’s not specifically designed for individuals with dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, or other forms of neurodiversity, it will certainly offer valuable support and practical strategies for anyone who is neurodiverse.
