Description

Assistive technology can be a bit of a buzzword in parenting and educational circles. It’s not always well-defined or well-understood. 

But assistive technology can be helpful for people with ADHD. Options range from virtual calendars and voice recording apps to things that don’t even seem like “technology” at all.
