Computer Refurbishing Program for Ohioans with Disabilities

 

 

Assistive Technology of Ohio at The Ohio State University offers a computer refurbishing program that benefits Ohioans with disabilities. The statewide program helps Ohioans with disabilities obtain a desktop or laptop computer for $60, including the cost of shipping. The price is reduced to $30 for participants who can pick up the computer. 

 

According to a 2021 Pew Research Center survey, only 62% of adults with a disability report owning a computer, compared with 81% of people without a disability.
