The National Task Force on Technology and Disability (NTFTD or Task Force) is a blue ribbon panel comprised of nationally recognized leaders from industry, academia, government, and the advocacy community of people with disabilities. Unique to this Task Force is its unprecedented endeavor to bring together a group of national experts from different disciplines to work toward a common goal.

The Task Force's goal is to develop an agenda that will foster long-lasting partnerships that support effective public policy, are good for business, and most importantly, advance the use of universal design (UD) and assistive technology (AT). The Task Force encourages the design and manufacture of products to be usable by people with the widest range of abilities possible, in a manner that is both technically possible and economically feasible. These products hold the greatest promise to more fully engage all citizens in the workforce, educational institutions, marketplace and society. The practice or process of trying to design products in this fashion is known as "universal design," "UD" or "design for all."
