Who Are We?
Access2CRT is a non-profit advocacy initiative coordinated by the Complex Rehab Technology (CRT) community. The goal is to provide a centralized website for sharing information and "Calls to Action" regarding protecting access to CRT for people with disabilities.
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”― Margaret Mead
What is Complex Rehab Technology?
Complex Rehab Technology (CRT) includes individually configured wheelchairs, seating systems, and other adaptive equipment prescribed to meet the specific needs of people with disabilities.

Who Is This Community?
The people who advocate for Complex Rehab Technology are just like you. They are individuals with or without disabilities, clinicians, students, family members, spouses, employees, caregivers, engineers, teachers, suppliers, manufacturers, or any other kind of person with a passion for protecting access to Complex Rehab Technology on behalf of the people who use it. No matter who you are, you can be an advocate.
What Are Our Goals?
We are purposed with making sure that individuals living with disabilities have appropriate access to the CRT products and supporting services they need to maximize their independence and protect their health. That’s why this community dedicates the resources, energy, and time to spreading the word and recruiting more advocates who will raise their voices in support of policies and legislation that do that.
