Assistive Technology Data Collection Project InfoUse, in collaboration with the Research Triangle Institute (RTI), is conducting an Assistive Technology Act Data Collection Project for the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR). The project is designing and implementing a web-based performance reporting system for the Assistive Technology Act state grants program. This system will meet the information needs of the Assistive Technology Act grantees, NIDRR, and Congress, and fulfill the requirements of the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (GPRA).
Assistive Technology Outcomes Measurement System (ATOMS) Based at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, the project will review various intervention approaches to change the functional performance of individuals with disabilities, including assistive technology (AT) and a public school AT outcome pilot and collaborative activity with school districts in Ohio, Michigan, and Colorado. The ATOMS Project is funded by the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR) and began in October 2001.

Association for the Advancement of Assistive Technology in Europe (AAATE) AAATE's mission is "to stimulate the advancement of assistive technology for the benefit of persons with disabilities including the elderly people." AAATE goals are to create the awareness of assistive technology; to promote Research & Development of assistive technology; to contribute to knowledge exchange within the field of assistive technology, e.g., by arranging conferences; and to promote information dissemination.
Cambridge Workshop Series on Universal Access and Assistive Technology Cambridge Workshop Series on Universal Access and Assistive Technology. CWUAAT is a series of international workshops that are held every two years. The workshops have been inspired by, and build on, the highly successful Cambridge Workshops on Rehabilitation Robotics organised by the late Robin Jackson. Robin was the founder of Rehabilitation Research at Cambridge and best paper prizes are presented at each CWUAAT in his memory.
Consortium for Assistive Technology Outcomes Research (CATOR) This project will review existing approaches to assistive technology (AT) outcomes and other research on it, review existing barriers to AT outcomes research, factors contributing to AT discontinuation, develop platform data collection tools to assess AT outcomes, and develop web-based outcomes measurement systems, among several research agenda items. The CATOR project was funded in the fall of 2001 by the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR).
Equal Access to Software and Information (EASI) EASI is part of the Teaching, Learning, and Technology Group, an affiliate of the American Association of Higher Education. EASI's mission is to promote the same access to information and resources for people with disabilities as everyone else.
