Have you heard of the Michigan Assistive Technology Program (MATP)?

MATP helps people with disabilities of all ages access tools and devices that make everyday life and community participation easier. Think of them as your guide to trying assistive technology in the places you actually live.

How MATP Helps:
• Free demonstrations
• Device loans
• Statewide support
• By people with disabilities, for people with disabilities: MATP staff use assistive technology themselves, so they know what works.
• Guided by the Assistive Technology Act: MATP programs are designed to increase access, choice, and independence for people with disabilities.

MATP does not sell devices nor promote one device over another. Their focus is on helping you explore options, try them out, and make informed decisions.

Contact MATP:

Join us this Winter session of Sweet & Salty Circle, where we’ll dive into cookies, candy, chips, and conversation, all through the lens of living with disability.

Sweet & Salty Circle is a fun and fantastic opportunity to sample new treats and socialize with your peers. Each month, we’ll alternate between sweet and salty themes--one month it might be cookies and candy, the next it could be chips, pretzels, or other savory surprises!

Using snacks as our conversation piece, we’ll explore seasonal flavors while reflecting on our own personal “flavor profiles” as individuals.

Our next session will be April 17 from 11am to noon via Zoom
