This section describes a number of funding options for AT. For school-age students with disabilities, the responsibility for funding AT often lies with the school system. However, the school district is only obligated to provide funding for AT if certain conditions are met. The student’s IEP team makes this determination. Beyond the school district, many other funding sources may be available to a student, including private, public assistance, and not-for-profit organizations. These are all described and discussed in this section.
