Suppliers and Manufacturers

What is the Suppliers and Manufacturers PSG about?

We build awareness of assistive technology products and devices within the therapy, engineering  and product design professions, foster relationships among suppliers and manufacturers who wish to explore this exciting and growing rehabilitation field, and encourage new ideas to improve functional outcomes for individuals with all types of disability.

We hope you will share your work with other members, by posting a link here to your website, sending news of conferences and publications, utilizing our resource page and meeting with other  members at the RESNA conference. In these ways you can help make this special interest group a nexus of ideas for research, development, training and practice.
