2015 Conference School District Lottery 

Community Resources for People with Autism’s 25th Annual Conference is the only of its kind in Western Massachusetts. This is a valuable day-long opportunity to network with other professionals and educators, learn about a variety of topics from our guest speakers and stay informed on the most current challenges and possibilities across the spectrum.

The Conference event includes breakfast, guest speaker presentations, exposition hall and lunch.

Community Resources For People With Autism, a program of the Association For Community Living, works to educate and build autism awareness within the community. This year we are offering three western MA school districts the opportunity to apply for five complimentary admissions to our conference. The recipient districts will be chosen by a lottery system with preference given to districts that send a diversified group (i.e. SPED Director, general education teacher, special education teacher, paraprofessional, ancillary
specialists).  School districts that have received this opportunity in the past three years are not eligible.
