A Continued Era of Changes for AccessComputing

As we reported in the last issue of AccessComputing News, we made changes to the scope of our NSF-supported work to align with new NSF priorities in late 2025. We were recently informed by the NSF that we will not receive the 2027 increment for our Alliance Award. No decision has been made about increments beyond 2027.

Because our community is at the heart of what AccessComputing does, we are making budgetary changes to ensure that our staff is able to continue supporting our community and bringing together accessibility allies over the next few years. As a result, we will have limited funding available to support in-person convenings, mini-grants, and student travel until we are able to secure alternate funding.

If you want to support AccessComputing, you can donate to the AccessComputing Research & Support Fund. Stay tuned for further fundraising efforts coming later this year.
