The Joy Zabala Fellowship for Assistive Technology and Accessible Educational Materials
Joy Smiley Zabala (1946-2021) was an inspiring leader, a gifted communicator, a passionate advocate, and a beloved friend. Joy was a co-founder of QIAT, the developer of the SETT Framework, and was co-director of the National Center on Accessible Educational Materials (AEM Center).
The fellowship will support emerging, early career professionals who, in collaboration with a seasoned mentor, will a) strengthen their expertise and skills in the use of assistive technology and accessible materials and b) share what they learn with the larger community of stakeholders
