Our
Mission
The Mission of the East Tennessee Technology
Access Center is to enable people with disabilities in East
Tennessee to reach their potential for functioning in the mainstream
of society through innovative uses of technology.
ETTAC's History
ETTAC was started in 1988 by a group of
parents, adults with disabilities, business people and service
providers in the community who held an uncommon belief in the power
of technology to help people with disabilities reach their
goals. Since 1988, ETTAC has provided a wide range of
assistive technology services to thousands of people with
disabilities, teachers, therapists, other service providers, and
area businesses. ETTAC works with people with disabilities of all
ages and all types of disabilities, and no one is denied services
based on ability to pay, age, type of disability, race, religion, or
sex.
