Abstract
APSA Association, which carries out activities aimed at improving the quality of life of people with disabilities, is developing an important process of digitization and, in turn, updating of its services. The e-APSA project arises as a reaction to a series of detected needs.
The research starts from the point of view of 261 relatives of students with disabilities, from the different centers of the educational area, being the instrument used the NICOA-Online Questionnaire.
The results obtained indicate that families have internet at home and claim to use it regularly, mainly from their mobile phones, but also from their computers. But, although most of them affirm that they are quite capable of consulting on the Internet, paradoxically they claim not to consult the information that APSA shares on its website. Furthermore, they admit to maintaining communication with the Association in person. Depending on gender and educational level, the differences found are statistically significant.
