Think College is proud to partner with National Down Syndrome Congress (NDSC) to host the 2021 Virtual College Fair. Colleges and universities will showcase their postsecondary programs for students with intellectual disabilities. Representatives from the college programs will be available on Friday, June 25, 2021 from 4 to 7 PM Eastern. Additionally, all registered colleges will be in the Virtual Exhibit Hall for registered attendees to visit during convention week and for 90 days afterward.

The NDSC 49^th Annual Convention will offer multiple Deep Dive sessions (for an additional fee per session), five workshop cycles, a more interactive Virtual Exhibit Hall, the return of our College Fair, the 4^th NDSC Advocacy Training Boot Camp, the GLOBAL Research & Medical Care Roundtable, and a Facebook group where you can share pictures, information, stay in contact and more.

APSE’s National Conference brings together the very individuals and organizations working toward and impacted by Employment First— people with disabilities and their families, business leaders, service providers, university-based researchers, as well as, state and federal policymakers and personnel. CTI’s Jaclyn Camden and Stephanie Lau will be presenting on “The Impact of Remote Work: A Discussion on What is Working and What Isn’t.”

This three day conference provides a host of information and networking opportunities for those interested in improving lives of individuals with disabilities. The mission of DCDT is to promote national and international efforts to improve the quality of and access to career/vocational and transition services, increase the participation of education in career development and transition goals, and influence policies affecting career development and transition for persons with disabilities.

This annual meeting hosted by The Ohio State University is intended to serve as a catalyst for positive change and a springboard for collaborations with our partners in education, business, public, and social service. Each year a series of workshops will provide a forum for individuals and organizations to expand their knowledge and perspectives, and an opportunity to increase community resources through the synergy of collaboration. The workshops are designed to bring a diverse audience together to discuss the full spectrum of disability issues and experiences.
