The WisLoan program offers loans for assistive technology. The loans help people buy equipment such as hearing aids, modified vehicles, wheelchairs, ramps, computers with modifications, environmental controls, alternative communication devices and home accessibility modifications. Independent living centers throughout the state provide technical assistance, applications, and assistive technology services.

There are no income requirements, and individuals are not required to exhaust personal or public funding. Under the program, banks provide loans to qualified borrowers. Loan amounts depend on the item purchased and the ability to repay the loan. Individuals applying for a loan must be at least 18 years old, reside in Wisconsin, and be a person with a disability or be purchasing items for someone with a disability.
