You Can’t Afford to Miss This!
This is a call to action, a revolutionary moment to redefine what support for people with disabilities looks like.
Learn to advocate for needs that are often misunderstood or overlooked. Design supports that will address your unique vision for YOUR future.
Equip yourself with tools to build a plan that reflects YOU – your dreams, your strengths, your life.
Let’s seize the moment and craft a future that celebrates diversity, acknowledges individuality, and above all, empowers.
There will be opportunities for families to connect with other families to build community and share experiences.
