The Center for Assistive Technology (CAT) Client Services team provides awareness of the use of Assistive Technology (AT).
We help people of all ages with various disabilities, illnesses and functional impairments apply AT for daily living, school, work, recreational and leisure activities. Our services can help people live more independent lives and also facilitate improved health, wellness and disease prevention.
We are part of the UB School of Public Health and Health Professions. We operate as a community-based organization and partner with other area agencies to assist people throughout Western New York's eight counties.
