Two ways we help reduce cost
ATRC supports access to assistive technology through both alternative financing options and cost-reduction solutions, depending on your needs.
Alternative financing — pay over time
We help individuals connect with funding sources needed to purchase devices.
- Guidance on alternative funding sources and low-interest loan programs, in partnership with American Savings Bank
- Best for higher-cost devices from $1,000–$30,000, such as power wheelchairs or home modifications
- Eligibility: Hawaiʻi resident with a documented disability
Cost reduction — 3D printed solutions
We explore ways to reduce costs by creating or adapting devices using more affordable methods.
- Custom 3D-printed assistive tools or low-cost adaptations of existing devices
- Best for simple daily living solutions or highly customized needs
- Practical, low-cost alternatives that still meet functional needs
