About Us

When farm families and workers become ill or injured, man hours that are crucial to the operation of the farm are lost. This is when AgrAbility can help.  We will work with individuals as part of a team to provide information and services that may make it possible for them to return to farming.

AgrAbility in Georgia is a free service and is part of a national program administered through the United States Department of Agriculture.  The program focuses on promoting independence for members of the agricultural community who have disabilities.

The program in Georgia is a partnership between The University of Georgia's Cooperative Extension Service in the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences and in the College of Family and Consumer Sciences.

You or someone you know may benefit from:

Technical Assistance
AgrAbility provides direct assistance to agricultural families with assistive technology, work site modifications, and independent living.

Information Sharing
AgrAbility provides information through individual contacts, distribution of resources, agency referrals and public education.

Professional Training
AgrAbility provides training opportunities on available resources and assistive technology for consumers and professionals.  Contact us for more information about presenting to your organization or group.

Who is eligible?

Those eligible for AgrAbility in Georgia services may be an owner or employee in a production agriculture setting with any type of disability. It is a free service.  Contact us to find out more at 1-877-524-6264 / (706) 542-0304 or click here to e-mail us.
