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 100+ 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 richard.tang@tjatc.org. Hope to see you there!
Info session
We were thrilled to have Michael Bloom, director of special education @ FCPS, speak at our open house this year. He provided truly valuable insights about assistive technology and what it means to implement it in one of the nation's largest school districts. We also had students share their stories of assistive tech.
But our work isn't done. We want to continue inspiring and empowering individuals across the Greater DC area. We want you (yes, you) to join us, either as a sponsor, attendee, or booth holder to make ATConnect on April 18, 2026 from 11 AM to 3 PM, a success.
