Join us for this year’s Fall Conference, More Than Words: Communication in Action. Featuring keynote speaker Jenny Brodell, M.A., CCC-SLP, this year’s conference will focus on supporting meaningful communication, connection, and self-expression across all stages of life.
Sessions will explore a variety of approaches that recognize and build upon individual strengths while also addressing diverse communication needs in the home, school, workplace, and community settings. Attendees will gain practical insights into collaborative support strategies, inclusive communication practices, relationship-building, and tools that promote independence and self-advocacy.
