The Assistive Technology Lending Library (ATLL) offers assistive technology guidance for students, teachers, and parents throughout Napa County. Our mission is to provide a source of lending materials for teachers and/or parents to trial when determining if a student with special needs requires assistive technology devices or services to access educational benefit. The ATLL is located in the Napa County SELPA within the Napa County Office of Education at 2121 Imola Ave.
We invite you to visit the ATLL and browse the items available for trial. Every Wednesday from 1-4 pm one of the ATLL Coordinators is available to assist as you explore available materials.
