Feedback on Our Work
“I value and enjoy collaboration with the AT Lab. I have come to experience their passion, expertise, responsible conduct, knowledge, and skills as they serve the Portland metropolitan area. The AT Lab has become an essential resource in our region both as a physical space to visit, as well as a virtual place to call or email anytime with questions that can be answered by licensed therapists and an accessibility specialist. The education they provide to families, therapists, support personnel, and other professionals is crucial to building AT capacity in our region.”

“Your work with Childswork Learning Center has not only impacted our staff and current students but will continue to impact the children we teach and the families we welcome into our community for years to come. Our work with Carrie and Noelle kept us accountable and continued our progress in being a fully inclusive center on our two campuses which serve over 120 children. As you know, Childswork is a proud supporter of Multnomah County’s Preschool For All, having piloted the program from its inception on our Cherry Blossom campus. The work with CVAT helped us honor the mission of PFA to create early childhood centers that welcome and serve all children without exclusion!”

“The City of Portland’s Smart City PDX program wants to thank Community Vision Assistive Technology Lab leadership and staff for excelling under the terms of the COVID-19 CARES Act Digital Divide Project contract. Community Vision AT Lab’s commitment to engaging in responsive communication with project staff and effective project implementation was a key component of the overall success of the COVID-19 CARES Act Digital Divide project.”
