New Castle ATRC Moves to duPont Hospital for Children

The New Castle County Assistive Technology Resource Center (ATRC) has moved to the Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children in Wilmington. With its new office space in North Wilmington, the ATRC will continue to serve as the comprehensive AT resource center in New Castle County.

As in Kent and Sussex Counties, the New Castle ATRC is barrier-free, open to the public, and contains examples of all types of AT. Eden Melmed, the Assistive Technology Specialist; Beth Mineo, the DATI Director; and Kia Bergman, the Information and Outreach Coordinator, are available to assist visitors Monday through Friday 8:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m.

Services offered at the site include personal equipment demonstration, assistance in helping to identify technology options for a given need, and consultation relative to funding options. Most of the equipment at the site is available for a two-week loan period, enabling users to "try before they buy." Drop-in visitors are always welcome, but to ensure personalized attention, it is recommended that you call in advance to make an appointment. There is no charge for the services offered by DATI’s ATRCs.
