United States and confirmed by the U.S.

Senate. Its overall purpose is to promote

policies, programs, practices, and

procedures that guarantee equal

opportunity for all people with

disabilities, regardless of the nature of

severity of the disability; and to

empower people with disabilities to

achieve economic self-sufficiency,

independent living, and inclusion and

integration into all aspects of society.

International Watch

The purpose of NCD’s International

Watch is to share information on

international disability issues and to

advise NCD’s Foreign Policy Team on

developing policy proposals that will

advocate for a foreign policy that is

consistent with the values and goals of

the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Technology Watch

NCD’s Technology Watch (Tech

Watch) is a community-based, crossdisability consumer task force on

technology. Tech Watch provides

information to NCD on issues relating to

emerging legislation on technology and

helps monitor compliance with civil

rights legislation, such as Section 508 of

the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as

amended.

These committees are necessary to

provide advice and recommendations to

NCD on international disability issues

and technology accessibility for people

with disabilities.

We currently have balanced

membership representing a variety of

disabling conditions from across the

United States.
