Assistive Technology Communities
Many professionals working in the area of assistive technology often feel isolated because of the lack of colleagues within their building. The inability to share resources, collaboratively problem solving, and discuss the challenges of the day with a colleague can contribute to the difficulty of finding and supporting effective assistive technology solutions.
Several online communities support the work of assistive technology specialists and others interested in maintaining a high level of current awareness. The following is a list of assistive technology communities that offer free membership and a wealth of resources and support:
Assistive Tech Ning

Family Center on Technology and Disability

Quality Indicators of Assistive Technology Listserv

Consider joining an assistive technology community to pose questions as well as gain access to the latest resources, strategies, and tools. Whether you participate in the community on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis, you will find a wealth of information that you can use in your work and share with others.
