Trudy is a conversational AI that can help you learn more about CLASS.

Olivia Shope, OTD at Duquesne University is completing her capstone project at CLASS. Olivia is conducting a doctoral capstone project to increase access and cost-effectiveness of assistive technology distribution. Through the project, Olivia will use CLASS's 3D printer and maker space to print small assistive devices. Those who are interested in requesting a device, should contact Olivia at oshope@classcommunity.org. The catalog of items is below. 


Those who receive a device are encouraged to participate in a study that will evaluate the quality and effectiveness of these devices. Those who would wish to participate in the study will need to:
