Welcome to Imagine!’s new Interactive Ledger! Many of the people we serve are looking to increase their independence around money management. Donna, who lives at the Bob and Judy Charles SmartHome in Boulder, is now using the Interactive Ledger to do just that. The Interactive Ledger uses both visual and auditory feedback which prompts individuals to enter in all the important information they need in order to maintain an effective ledger. In addition, the Interactive Ledger provides opportunities for individuals to develop advanced math skills when calculating new Ledger amounts. In the event that someone needs additional support when adding or subtracting new amounts, the Ledger will announce whether or not a total is too high, as well as by how much, and will provide a calculator if necessary.

Using this tool, people are able to manage their money with greater independence, providing opportunities to develop skills such as budgeting and future planning, as well as high level addition and subtraction skills.

Stay tuned for future updates on the new Interactive Ledger!
