A student using Guided Hands® in the classroom to work toward IEP goals

Helping Students Achieve Their IEP Goals

Every student deserves the opportunity to participate, express themselves, and reach their full potential.

Educators, school-based OTs, and SLPs in 26+ countries use Guided Hands® to help students with limited hand mobility write, paint, draw, and access AAC devices. This increases classroom participation while working towards IEP goals with greater independence.

No student left behind!

Classroom Accessibility for All Mobility Levels and Ages

Every student moves differently. Guided Hands® adapts to a wide range of mobility levels and ages, helping students access classroom activities and touchscreen devices like iPads without relying on fine motor skills, eye-tracking, or hand-over-hand assistance.

A New Way to Participate

Meet Zippy

A bright and creative 5-year-old with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC). Before Guided Hands®, Zippy often used a paintbrush or pencil in his mouth to create. Today, he can sit at the same desk as his peers, draw and write with his hands, and chat with his classmates while he works - giving him greater independence, inclusion, and dignity in the classroom.

"Guided Hands® allows him to just be a kid."

— Cindy, Zippy's mom
