This year, our Conference will feature student-only sessions that are designed to address issues and topics that will be of specific interest to students and young adults. Keynote Speaker LeDerick Horne will offer a rousing presentation drawing from his own experiences as a neurodiverse individual who also uses his extraordinary gift as a dynamic spoken-word poet to advocate for all people with disabilities. The Conference will also feature our immensely popular Panel of successful college students and recent college graduates who are also neurodiverse who will discuss their respective college planning and transition journeys.
