Ray Grott joined RESNA in 1992. He has served on numerous RESNA committees, including as Chair of the Membership committee and the Meetings Committee—in which capacity he took major responsibility for organizing two annual conferences. Most recently, he is serving as Secretary of the Board of Directors. Ray has a long history as a presenter of instructional courses and workshops (sometimes with his alter-ego, “ErgoMan.”) He can always be counted on to share his latest custom designs and is widely known for his frequent postings to the RESNA technology listserve. His contributions to RESNA and his support of others in the field earned him RESNA’s Distinguished Service and Mentor awards. Ray is the Director of the Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology (RET) Project at San Francisco State University, through which he provides direct AT services to hundreds of people throughout the region. He also teaches, participates in research, reviews and edits articles and proposals, evaluates new products, supports disability rights issues, and volunteers on committees such as the Assistive Technology Advisory Committee for his state’s Department of Rehabilitation.
“Ray’s insight and critical thinking skills, not to mention his willingness to ‘speak up,’ have served RESNA extremely well. He can always be counted on to be very thoughtful and objective in his contributions to the business of running the organization.”
“The AT field is lucky to have him. Ray naturally rises to the top of a group or organization because of his competence, dedication, integrity, intelligence, broad experience, and astonishing work ethic.”

On November 10, 2011, RSA members attended Veterans Connect, a collaboration to help focus outreach to the veteran community. The objective of this unique collaboration and outreach was to connect veterans to services available from the city, the VA and other non-profits. During the event, RSA’s Vice President Jenna French met Lieutenant Governor of California, Gavin Newsom.
