Assistive Technology for Kansans helps people explore and obtain technology for learning, working, communication, daily living, recreation, and community participation.
Assistive Technology for Kansans, commonly called ATK, is Kansas’s statewide Assistive Technology Act program.
The program is coordinated by the University of Kansas.
ATK serves people of all ages with disabilities or health conditions and operates through regional Assistive Technology Access Sites throughout Kansas.
ATK follows a “try before you buy” philosophy that allows people to explore technology before making purchasing decisions.
ATK operates a statewide device-loan system.
Individuals with disabilities or health conditions, family members, providers, and others may borrow equipment to help determine whether technology meets the person’s needs before purchasing or seeking funding.
Short-term loans are generally designed for approximately four to six weeks.
ATK’s Kansas Equipment Exchange and reuse programs help Kansans locate quality used or refurbished equipment.
Some qualifying refurbished durable medical equipment may be provided at no cost.

Assistive technology can be expensive and highly individualized.
ATK allows Kansans to explore, compare, borrow, and locate assistive technology before making purchasing decisions.
The program can also help people identify funding resources and connects Kansans with the K-Loan alternative-financing program.
