CreATe Together

Order from our catalog, get something made, or volunteer to make.

We can CreATe Together!

CreATe Together is a FREE program that makes 3D printed or fabricated assistive technology (AT) for people in Pennsylvania.

Our pillars of service are:

  • Catalog of 3D printed devices
  • Making custom devices for people
  • Hosting build events to make assistive devices for the community

Order a Free Device

TechOWL’s 3D Printed Assistive Technology Program is available to residents of Pennsylvania. Because resources are limited, each household may receive no more than 3 items.

We do not provide 3D printed assistive technology that has an affordable equivalent alternative option available on the market. All items listed in the catalog below are preapproved for printing.

Any requests for items not on this list will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis and we will let you know if it is possible for us to print.

We try to make everything free for Pennsylvanians. Most 3D printed devices are provided for free. Some larger projects might require financial contributions. This will be discussed prior to the service.

TechOWL’s services are funded by the federal Assistive Technology Act Program that supports state efforts to improve the provision of assistive technology to individuals with disabilities of all ages through comprehensive, statewide programs that are consumer-responsive. The Administration for Community Living is the federal overseeing entity. In Pennsylvania, the Assistive Technology Act Program is called Pennsylvania’s Initiative on Assistive Technology or “PIAT.”

PIAT makes assistive technology devices and services more available and accessible to individuals with disabilities and their families.

The amount of Pennsylvania’s annual award is based largely on our population and is based on a formula.

If you would like an item from us, please submit a request. You will promptly be emailed about your order with an estimated shipping date as well as be provided with the satisfaction survey and release of liability. This information is also located at the bottom of this page.
