Living with vision loss doesn’t mean giving up your independence. Revital EYES is a supportive group program designed specifically for individuals experiencing vision loss — helping you discover new tools, techniques, and connections that make everyday life more manageable and fulfilling.
We meet regularly to share experiences, learn adaptive strategies, and explore assistive technology options that can make a real difference in daily life.

Program 2
Telecommunications Equipment Purchase Program (TEPP)
The Telecommunications Equipment Purchase Program (TEPP) helps Wisconsin residents with disabilities purchase the specialized equipment they need to use basic telephone services. The program is funded by the Wisconsin Universal Service Fund (USF) and administered by the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin.
Society’s Assets can help you understand the program, determine your eligibility, and walk you through the application process.
How It Works: You pay a $100 co-pay and your voucher covers the rest — up to the maximum amount for your disability category. If you can’t afford the co-pay, the Telecommunications Assistance Program (TAP) may be able to cover it for eligible low-income individuals who are Deaf or Severely Hard of Hearing.
Eligible Equipment Includes
- Amplified telephones & handsets
- Captioned/VCO telephones
- Hands-free speaker telephones
- Mobile phones & tablets
- Refreshable Braille displays
- Telephone signaling systems/flashers
- Eye Gaze devices
- Speech amplified telephones
Eligibility Requirements
To qualify you must be a Wisconsin resident, have a qualifying hearing, speech, or mobility disability, and have a need for specialized equipment to communicate at home or while traveling. There is no age or income limit to apply.
Important to Know:
- Vouchers must be used within 120 days of issue
- One voucher per person every 3 years per disability category
- No age or income limits to apply
- Can't afford the co-pay? Ask us about TAP assistance
