Description
Tech Equity: Freedom Through Enabling Technology is the first comprehensive operational playbook on enabling technology and remote supports for Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS), intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), and aging services. No other book in the field combines civil rights framing, cultural alignment, staffing math, waiver policy strategy, and implementation frameworks into a single practitioner-ready resource.
Author Precious "Preciosa" Myers-Brown, The Voice of Enabling Technology™ and founder of Vista Supports, LLC, draws on 38 years of leadership in disability services to show providers, policymakers, and direct support professionals how to build enabling technology ecosystems that expand autonomy and dignity rather than replicate institutional control. She introduces four proprietary frameworks: the Enabled Life Model™, the Tech Equity Triangle™, the Seven Freedoms of ET™, and the Ritmo Framework™.
This book is for state directors shaping HCBS policy, provider CEOs navigating the DSP staffing crisis, frontline workers who want to do more meaningful work, and families advocating for loved ones who deserve more than survival. It is grounded in field experience, written in plain language, and designed to remain relevant for decades.
Precious "Preciosa" Myers-Brown is the first woman of color to found and lead a full-service U.S. enabling technology and remote supports company, and the first to publish a work of this scope in the field.
