CSUN assistive technology conference 2020

CSUN conference participants

The 2020 CSUN Assistive Technology Conference will be held March 9-13 at the Anaheim Marriott and is expected to draw more than 4,500 attendees. The conference explores all aspects of assistive technology and will feature two days of pre-conference workshops followed by more than 300 general educational and journal sessions and the opening of the exhibit hall on Wednesday, March 11.

“Our motivation for hosting the conference continues to be to provide an environment where leaders in the field, who are committed to driving innovation in assistive technology, can network and interact with each other and get input from people with disabilities,” said Sandy Plotin, managing director of the Center on Disabilities.

“This year is especially exciting as it also marks the 30th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA),” Plotin said. “We have two prominent advocates in our keynote speaker and Strache Leadership Award recipient, who are both well-known and respected for the work they do to improve inclusion.”

The exhibit hall is free and open to the public.  This year’s sold-out exhibit hall, with almost 30 new exhibitors, will include demonstrations of the latest technologies for people with disabilities and the opportunity for end users and practitioners to interact with the providers of assistive technology products and services.
