Seeing is Believing

In light of the current economy it's easy to say " can't. " As we see more

and more about budget and service

cuts, it feels far more difficult to find the way that we can be successful

despite the circumstances without

seriously damaging our values. But we can continue to be successful - if

we are willing to learn from our past

and from the innovations that are today making a difference in the lives of

people who experience disability.

Join us as we examine creativity and collaboration with renewed hope.

Join us as we learn to engage with people who experience disability in new

and constructive ways.

Join us as we throw off self-imposed limitations and find new solutions -

for such a time as this.
