This document summarizes the results of surveys of 40 major national disability organizations to determine their involvement with the development, distribution, evaluation, consumer testing, information dissemination, or sponsorship of assistive technology devices. In order to provide a practical guide for researchers, potential corporate partners, and others in the assistive technology field, the entries include the organizations' publicity and information channels, and preferred avenues of contact. Additionally, some details on their overall missions and primary service constituencies provides a more complete picture of each organization. (Note: this article does not cover government organizations which have disability services, nor corporations which develop or distribute assistive equipment, as they are discussed in other articles in this publication.)
