About ASSETS 
ASSETS 2006 is a technical forum for presenting and disseminating innovative
research results that address the use of computing and information
technologies to help persons with disabilities. The conference's scope spans
special needs associated with speech, motor, hearing, and vision impairments;
cognitive limitations; and emotional and learning disabilities. Researchers
and developers, from both academia and industry, are invited to meet to
exchange ideas and present reports on new hardware and/or software advances
related to these areas.  

ASSETS is traditionally a very friendly and welcoming conference, with a
wonderful sense of community among the participants. In 2006, the conference
will be held at the Embassy Suites Downtown in Portland, OR. This promises to
be a delightful setting for what we hope will be a conference to remember.
