Greetings
Friends! The Arkansas Cross Disability Conference and Day at the Capitol
for Individuals with Disabilities will now take place October 16th-19th,
2016. We will conclude at the state capitol on October 19th with the
signature event, the Day at the Capitol.
In
those changing systems, we as professionals are now living, shopping, playing,
worshipping, and working next to the people we support. The boundaries are
disappearing for individuals living with disabilities.
Whether
the professionals attending are clinician, researcher, academic teacher, policy
leader, administrator or hands-on professional, what do these changes mean to
them now and in the future? Being a professional is part identity, part skills,
part vision, and part commitment to serving individuals with disabilities
diversely across the board.
Who
is the Captive Audience?
ALL individuals disabilities will
attend the entire event “FREE” ! A big “Thank you”
to our sponsors.
·
Educators
& researchers
·
Therapists & clinicians
·
Caregivers & family members
·
Legislators
PLEASE NOTE: All others will pay a flat fee of $189 that includes
conference material and meals that are included.
The conference will provide meaningful
information to use on a daily basis and for a lifetime. Our philosophy is
that all individuals despite the disability to be equal members and productive
in society. Some individuals require more accommodations than others but
the end result is the rights and privileges given to everyone.
