Assistive Technology Conference Later This Month

The Assistive Technology Industry Association is celebrating its 10th annual conference in Orlando on January 28-31. Anyone interested in learning more about assistive technology is invited to attend, and it’s a great opportunity for parents of children with cerebral palsy to talk to leading AT vendors and have some of their questions answered.

Kids are welcome too, and for those with disability, it’s a chance to get some hands-on experience with new technologies. Some of the products and technologies to be featured at the conference include:
 

• Learning and literacy aids
• Computer access
• Communication devices
• Vision and hearing aids
• Games
• Adaptive devices and accessories

Families can use the conference to network, share ideas, attend educational sessions and talk to professionals in fields ranging from medicine to education. Those who wish to attend can register online. A registration fee applies, but the conference is free to the public during certain times (a pass can be printed from the site).

Further information about the conference can be found here.
