Funding assistance "JobAccess Employee Assistance Fund" for assistive technology & equipment to support stroke survivors at work or gain employment.

After my stroke I got back to work part time but I was struggling with certain aspects of my job. I was able to apply for funding assistance through the JobAccess Employee Assistance Fund (EAF), after I was assessed as eligible they supported me to get assistive technology & equipment (an iPad, scanner and Dragon word to text software).

I wanted let the Enableme stroke survivors know that this government funding exists and give a link to the JobAcess Employee Assistance Fund web page.

I hope you find this helpful if you are back at work or trying to get back to work.
