Sesquicentennial: 150 Years of Progress
The 150th AAIDD Annual Meeting will provide a forum for researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and advocates to come together to explore opportunities, strategies, and challenges related to technological progress made in the field of intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). This major anniversary of our Association is a time to reflect on our past and join together in celebrating the importance of scientific advancements in supporting people with IDD as we look toward the future.
The conference will:
- Include plenary sessions focused on how technology has shaped our policies, practices, and research in the past and present so we can better leverage Ai in the future.
- Feature panel presentations, poster presentations, issue briefs, and poster symposia on new and emerging knowledge in our field and promising practices that illustrate our ongoing commitment for the inherent dignity of individuals while fostering supportive communities though such advancements.
- Provide networking opportunities to build professional relationships, facilitate the informal exchange of ideas, and aid in personal and career growth.
AAIDD seeks proposals that highlight new and emerging knowledge in the field of IDD. Evidence-based research, practice, and policy-oriented proposals on all topics of concern to people with IDD are welcome, authors do not need to limit themselves to the conference theme in their submissions.
