PUBLIC EDUCATION

The Public Education program at Ability Connection provides valuable educational services to families, caregivers and disability professionals who are responsible for taking care of (or overseeing the care of) a person with a disability. We also offer training and educational programs to the community in order to create a greater awareness of disabilities, to promote better care for people with disabilities, to teach about recognizing abuse, neglect or exploitation, and to foster more positive attitudes toward those with disabilities.

ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY TRAINING

Ability Connection New Mexico will be partnering with Albuquerque Speech, Language, Hearing Center to offer Assistive Technology Trainings for professionals and caregivers who work with individuals with disabilities. Training will be semi-annual and provide:

• The importance of Assistive technology for those with disabilities
• Why it is crucial for caregivers and professionals to understand Assistive Technology
• The opportunity to network and share experiences with other working with individuals with disabilities
