AUCD Conference Word Cloud
Created by the Maryland Center for Developmental Disabilities
During the AUCD 2018 Conference, attendees created buttons using words and phrases reflecting their thoughts on the conference theme, "We All Belong Here." Maryland Center for Developmental Disabilities UCEDD high school trainee Danielle Kim and Director of Training Dr. Mirian Ofonedu took the words and phrases used on those buttons and compiled them to form a word cloud. The resulting visual shows the disability rights community perspective that was present at the AUCD Conference: a determined call for all to mean all and to disable the labels that disable.

About AUCD2018
The AUCD2018 Conference brings people together to remember, celebrate, and remind others that all human beings have value, and a right to be included in their communities. In November we will share and learn from one another about ways to create opportunity, access, and equity in education, housing, employment, healthcare, faith communities, transportation, activities, and all aspects of community living. Join us at AUCD2018 as we come together, celebrate our achievements, and to recharge our commitment to achieving inclusive communities!
