Welcome!

Welcome to AssisTech: An AssistiveTechnology Blog!
This brand new blog will focus on assistive technology for people with physical disabilities. Assistive technology can improve the quality of life both in and out of the workplace. My name is Ashley, and I work for a non-profit equal opportunity group here in Boston, MA. My organization is dedicated to helping ensure equal opportunity in the workplace for people with a wide variety of physical disabilities. With new technology developing every day, there are many new technologies and programs available to help people with physical disabilities enhance their quality of life.
This blog is designed with physically disabled people themselves in mind, but the information provided here will also be useful for employers looking to improve the accessibility options they provide employees and for friends and family of people with physical disabilities. I have seen first-hand the impact that the assistive technology available today can have on the life of someone with a physical disability, and it is my hope that the information discussed here will allow you to do the same!
Check back soon for weekly posts!
