Join us at ATConnect '26!

The student-led AT fair making a real difference.

In 2025, we hosted our first-ever ATConnect, a student-led assistive tech (AT) fair with 50+ attendees and 10+ companies. We were thrilled to have students, parents, teachers, and companies alike come together to share and learn about assistive technology.

We're excited to announce that ATConnect '26, our next event, is currently being organized! Our hope is to create an event with an even wider impact and reach, but we need your help to make our mission possible.

Additionally, if you would like to sponsor us or have any inquiries, please let us know at [email protected]. Hope to see you there!
