TRAC's mission to improve the quality of life for individuals with disabilities is accomplished through services including computer and assistive technology assessments, assistive technology /computer training, and community outreach. TRAC houses a variety of assistive technology to address the needs of individuals experiencing visual, hearing, physical, or learning challenges.
In 1996, the Center opened the doors of a dedicated facility on the Lakefront Campus, the Oliver St. Pe Center. The department name was changed to the Training, Resource and Assistive-technology Center (TRAC) to reflect expanding services.
The Oliver St. Pe Center houses our training and evaluation labs and administrative offices. The facility also houses a conference center and lodging.
