Due to the unpredictable nature and reach of the coronavirus, NCART and NRRTS have decided it is in the best interest of our attendees to postpone and reschedule the upcoming Access2CRT Summit.

We are in the process of working with our event planner and the hotel exploring rescheduling the Summit to another date. We hope to be in a position to share specific details during the week of March 16th. At that time, we will be able to provide information on rescheduling or cancelling hotel and airline reservations, paid registration fees, and other items.
 
Our apologies for the inconvenience and we thank everyone for their patience as we navigate this unexpected but necessary change. As always, we are grateful for the support in our efforts to protect access to CRT. More to follow.
 
 
 
Save YOUR place among others who are taking action to protect the future of Complex Rehabilitation Technology.

Previously known as the National CRT Leadership and Advocacy Conference, this two-day  event offers a range of educational, advocacy, and networking benefits for CRT suppliers, manufacturers, clinicians, CRT users, and others.

Keynote Speaker, Richard Corbett, will bring his passion for life to this year's CRT Summit in his opening message, "Mastering the New Normal"

Richard Corbett’s passion in life is helping others who have experienced significant injury and are adapting to their “new normal”. Nearly a decade ago he sustained a spinal cord injury and embarked on a new chapter in life his life that eventually led to the creation of his video channel, Wheels2Walking. Through that platform he shares his experiences and those of others to empower wheelchair users.
