North American Alliance for Communication Access

The North American Alliance for Communication Access (NAACA) is a collaborative working group comprised of members from USSAAC, ISAAC Canada, Communication Disabilities Access Canada (CDAC), and Centro de Apoyo Tecnológico para la Comunicación y el Aprendizaje (CATIC) in Mexico.

Communication Access

Below are guidelines developed by NAACA to ensure communication access during conferences, meetings and events:

• Conferences and In-person Events
• Town Hall Meetings
• Online Events
• Committee Meetings
