CTA Foundation on the Road: Connecting Across Aging and Accessibility Spaces

CTA Foundation Executive Director Steve Ewell has been on the move this month, meeting with leaders across the aging and accessibility tech landscape. From national conferences to local events, these conversations are key to strengthening our partnerships and deepening our involvement.

  • Earlier in June, Steve attended On Aging 2025 , hosted by the American Society on Aging — one of the largest events focused on issues impacting older adults. With sessions on policy, design, and innovation, the conference highlighted the importance of technology in creating more accessible communities for all generations.

Just last week, Steve joined Verizon’s ADA anniversary event at Civic Hall in New York City, celebrating 35 years of progress at the intersection of people and technology.

  • He joined CTA Foundation Trustee Sally Lange for a fireside chat on AgeTech and how innovation can help aging adults live more independently.
  • The program also featured a keynote by disability activist Anastasia Somoza, who shared her experience as a member of the ADA generation and the role of technology in shaping futures.

👉 We’re proud to keep showing up in spaces that drive forward accessibility and aging tech and look forward to what’s ahead. Let us know if you will be at upcoming events, we’d love to meet with you there.
