Abstract: Adaptive video gaming is a growing service within the field of assistive technology. There are now many options for individuals living with disabilities to play video games independently. However, for providers interested in offering adaptive gaming services, it is often difficult to know where to start with the adaptive gaming assessment. In this presentation, the adaptive gaming assessment will be broken down to highlight the key questions to ask those seeking adaptive gaming services. Through the presentation, information will be provided on the different controller, console, and game adaptations available to individuals with disabilities.

Learning Outcomes: At the end of session, attendees will be able to:

1. After the presentation, participants will be able to describe at least ten different adaptations or adaptive controllers available for individuals with disabilities.
2. After the presentation, participants will be able to identify at least three techniques to improve an individual's adaptive gaming set up.
3. After the presentation, participants will be able to discuss at least five questions pivotal to the adaptive gaming assessment.
