Emerging Leaders: Shaping the Future
Every year, AUCD welcomes thousands of Emerging Leaders to the Network. Located in every U.S. state and territory, they share a passion to serve, research, and educate to make positive changes with and for people with disabilities and their families. Emerging Leaders are vital to the growth of the AUCD Network and to the success of our mission: to improve the lives of people with disabilities. Emerging Leaders represent the next generation of innovative clinicians, service providers, trainers, advocates, family members, and academic professionals. The AUCD 2023 Conference recognizes that Emerging Leaders continue to propel our Network forward, building on a proud legacy of inclusion, striving for equity, and positively shaping the future.
