Four Participants in the Technology Solutions Specialists

Technology Solutions Specialists

Initiated under the Pennsylvania Tech Accelerator project, the Technology Solutions Specialists program equips people with lived experience to become the next generation of technology leaders, consultants, and experts.

By combining their firsthand experience as technology users and enthusiasts with collaborative training in technology and leadership skills, the program creates meaningful pathways to employment and leadership for people with disabilities and drives progress toward a more inclusive and accessible tech future.

The PA Tech Accelerator is a partnership between the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services’ Office of Developmental Program and Office of Long-Term Living, The State of the States in IDD, and Temple University, made possible with American Rescue Plan Act funds.
