This Website Will Be Ending Soon!

Congratulations to us and to you! We won this battle!

When we first posted this website and founded The American Telecommuting Association, telecommuting was a relatively rare phenomenon, with owners and managers very reluctant to pay an employee who didn't show up on a regular basis. How could they know s/he was actually working?

Today, telecommuting is as common as water, and just like fish don't really pay much attention to the water in which they swim, today's employers and employees don't really pay much attention to what we used to promote so strenuously as "telecommuting." In fact, a great many employers now make a big thing of allowing their employees to work remotely.

So while the ATA once had countless members and fought countless battles on many fronts and at many levels, today there's far less for us to do. What's more, momentum is on our side. We suspect that within a few years, the notion of "telecommuting" will be as well-accepted and commonplace as the notion of women running companies and internet-enabled commerce (if it isn't already).

So the next move is obvious: We're declaring victory and moving on.

Many thanks for all your support during the most difficult years, and congratulations again for your success in winning this important fight.

Millions of people in the United States and around the world have discovered the power, the pleasure, and the productivity improvement that comes with Telecommuting to work. This is your invitation to join us and help to share these benefits with others.

A simple $10 donation gives you proud membership in the American Telecommuting Association, and gives us the power to continue distributing information and know-how about telecommuting to the thousands of people who inquire every month. If you are an employer, we ask for $10 per year per telecommuter (remember that telecommuting need not be a five-day-a-week proposition; many telecommuters work out of the office only a few days per month).
