Assistive Technology Pointers for Parents is a workbook to help parents work with schools and other agencies to identify appropriate assistive technology devices and services for their children with disabilities. It focuses on specific questions that parents can use to help move the decision making process forward. Two kinds of questions are described. The first are those that parents can ask themselves or other family members before beginning dialogue with schools. The second set of questions are those which parents can ask school providers to help clarify the things that are being done to assess assistive technology needs and implement assistive technology programs.

The workbook is sixty-six pages long and includes worksheets, stories about children who use assistive technology and resource and reference information that parents will find valuable in exploring assistive technology.
