AT Reuse

Behind every reused AT device, there is a story to be told, a dream being realized, and a goal being met.

The Pass It On Center Blog is a place for AT Reuse Programs and anyone else interested in AT and Durable Medical Equipment (DME) Reuse to discuss, share, explore and provide resources for the AT Reuse Community. So come on in and join the discussion, post a question or comment or just hang out and learn a few things.

Are you Listed?


Over 190 AT Reuse program profiles have been created in the PIOC Reuse Locations database. This database aims to assist people with disabilities and their circles of support to locate their community resources that can assist them to exchange or locate refurbished AT that they need or no longer use. 

If you click on your state, do you see all of the reuse locations that you know about? If not, contact those missing programs and ask them to create a profile so that users will know where to find them. Is the information for existing programs accurate? Sometimes users click on a link only to discover that the program web site has a new address and the new information was not updated.

To get started, visit the PIOC Reuse Locations page at http://passitoncenter.org/locations/search.aspx. Simply click on “create an account” to enter your program’s information or to log in using the original sign in information to update an existing entry.
