Join us as an Exhibitor
You’ll have the valuable opportunity to connect directly with students, families, and professionals who are actively planning for life after high school. Exhibitors play a critical role in this process by sharing programs, services, and tools, and supports that help bridge the gap between school and the adult world.
Join us for this meaningful chance to showcase your commitment to inclusion and accessibility, build community partnerships, and be part of a collective effort to create brighter futures for individuals with disabilities.
Cost: $75.00
