The 2007 AUCD Annual Meeting and Conference is a special opportunity to share your interests, talents, and perspectives with the AUCD network and its partners. The theme is broad and emphasizes the interrelationship of research, education, service, and policy at the international, national, state, and local levels. This year’s annual meeting is a call to act, understand, expand, and integrate findings and education with policy and practice which will lead to inquiry, understanding, and learning that will reinforce the expansion of a system which embraces self-determination, interdependence, and inclusion. Join your colleagues as we challenge how we work today in order to shape tomorrow's opportunities for individuals with disabilities and their families.

We look forward to seeing you in November at the 2007 Annual Meeting and Conference.
