On Thursday, March 28, 2023 -in a one-day hybrid event in Washington, DC and via Zoom- The Center for Research on Disability will be releasing the Annual Disability Statistics Collection, which fills critical gaps in national, state, and historic data related to people with disabilities by synthesizing complex data from numerous U.S. federal agencies into accessible formats. The Conference will also include two sessions addressing the latest in disability statistics, including survey methods and how disability is defined in national surveys.

This symposium aims to bring together experts from diverse fields to discuss and debate the latest discoveries in neurodevelopmental processes across species, shedding light on the brain's systems-level function and dysfunction.

This year's theme is "Inclusion and Belonging: Powerful Discussions to Engage our Community." This event focuses on meaningful inclusion of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in many areas. Professionals, family members, disability advocates, community members and students are invited to attend. Sessions will cover topics such as social inclusion and inclusion in medical, education, housing and employment contexts.

This event will provide a framework and strategies for producing inclusive, authentic, accessible, and actionable research on mental health in intellectual disability (ID) through community engaged research.

Join the Project ECHO Orientation to learn more about the ECHO model and how you can incorporate it into your work as a UCEDD (University Center of Excellence in Developmental Disabilities) or LEND (Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental Disabilities) program (or partner organization). Partners at the Wyoming Institute for Disabilities and the Center for Human Development at the University of Alaska Anchorage will share how they are implementing ECHO.

The Stanford Neurodiversity Summit is a forum for exchange of ideas about neurodiversity among all people. It is a venue where we listen to each other, especially when our views are not the same. This active listening is not just about respect, but an act to grow together as a community.

We welcome all health care professionals, educators, therapists, self-advocates and families/caregivers to this free virtual event. The theme is We Belong: Preparing for Community Life and Fulfillment After High School.
