Guest guest Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Shelby, I'll be there all day, and I live ten minutes away. Hope you can make it....it is such a welcoming environment and so much to see. The autism community, at least the one I have been involved in, has been so open armed to me. Message me if you want to connect. > > Is anyone going to the autismone conference in Chicago the end of May? > I noticed they have a few breakout sessions that deal with the dual diagnois. I would really love to attend. I have been to one Down Syndrome national conference, but never Autism. Actually, I never felt quite like I fit in at some of the Down Syndrome break-out sessions. I was dealing with much more, but at the time, didn't know it. Let me know if anyone is attending, or if you have been to one before. > Thanks, Dolly, (mom to , 11yrs. dual diagnosis) > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 I go to the national Down syndrome conference every year and love them. This conference intrigues me, but I'm not familiar with Autismone, so I'm going to do some research on them and their connection to Down syndrome research. I've been to several different seminars and such about Autism over the years and read tons of material on the dual diagnosis, but never anything sponsored by this particular organization that I'm aware of. So, I'm certainly curious about their work. My husband has already said that he'll keep the kids so that I can go to this conference, if I want. So based on what I find, I may be there. If any of you have any useful information about this organization and their connection to Down syndrome research, please share it. It'll save me time on google mom to Jakob, Olivia, Zoie, Emmett(Ds,age9), Kullen(Ds,age9), Grifyn(Ds,age8), Xander(Ds/ASD,age8)and Annikah(Ds,MoyaMoya,age6) > > Is anyone going to the autismone conference in Chicago the end of May? > I noticed they have a few breakout sessions that deal with the dual diagnois.
