State agencies. I believe in florida, they call it the Florida Rehabilitation Council. Here in Texas, they call it the Department of Assistive Rehabilitation Services. The DARS paid for my Quickie GTi. Hope this helps. If not, let me know, and I will make some calls to a friend of mine in Crestview and see what she knows.

Most states have a vocational rehabilitation agency,,,,, they will do almost anything to get you back to work,,,, chairs,, vehicles,, training.

Definitly worth a shot,,,,
