Alliance for technology access.

THE ALLIANCE FOR TECHNOLOGY ACCESS (ATA) is a national network of technology resource centers, community-based organizations, technology vendors, and individuals who are committed to increasing the use of technology by children and adults with disabilities and functional limitations.

ATA was conceived in 1983 by a group of parents and professionals in northern California in response to the needs of a five-year-old child with cerebral palsy who, it was believed, would benefit from the coming technology revolution. From this small group of parents, consumers, and professionals, the ATA has grown into one of the nation's largest resources to help children and adults who have disabilities and functional limitations gain access to the benefits of assistive technology.

In 1987, the group was joined by a major technology company to form the Alliance for Technology Access, with 11 charter member resource centers in 10 states. In 1989 ATA was established as an independent nonprofit organization. All 40 local nonprofit ATA Technology Resource Centers are operated through a collaboration of people with disabilities, family members, and professionals in related fields. All are barrier-free in architecture as well as in attitude and are committed to providing services, information, and referrals for everyone who contacts them. ATA's vendor members include companies who manufacture both mainstream and assistive technology. Associate members include a wide range of individuals and organizations who work in their own communities and seek ways to support ATA's mission. Join ATA now and become part of this vital nationwide network with the most up-to-date information about assistive technology. Your membership will include a subscription to ATA's listserv where you can read and participate in discussions about assistive technology. You can post questions yourself or help others who are looking for information. You also will be eligible for significant discounts on major assistive technology conferences and save up to 50 percent on registration fees. Most importantly, you will be connected to a network of valuable resources and people committed to increasing access to assistive technology for people with disabilities and functional limitations.

Visit ATA's Web site at http://www.ATAccess.org to find a wealth of assistive technology resources and information. There you will find the HUB, a searchable and interactive database of companies who manufacture and sell assistive technology. Also, you can read about ATA's book, Computer Resources for People with Disabilities, a valuable guide to exploring assistive technology.

To speak with a representative of the ATA, contact their national office: [phone] or by TTY at 707.778.3015.
