Welcome to RESNA!

Welcome to RESNA, the Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology Society of North America.  We were started in 1979 and incorporated in 1980 as a 501(c)(3) organization.  Our mission is to support people with a common interest in technology and disability.  Therefore, our membership is multidisciplinary and international.  As an organization, we promote research and development, education, advocacy and the provision of assistive technology while at the same time supporting the individuals engaged in these activities.

Our membership consists of individuals, institutions, companies and other entities covering a range of disciplines.  These members include researchers, clinicians, suppliers, manufacturers, consumers and educators who work in nonprofit and for-profit settings.  All members are dedicated to promoting the exchange of ideas and information for the advancement of assistive technology.
