Each year, the TASH Conference strengthens the disability field by connecting attendees to innovative information and resources, facilitating connections between stakeholders within the disability movement, and helping attendees reignite their passion for an inclusive world. This year’s conference theme, “Gateway to Equity,” explores inclusive communities, schools, and workplaces that support people with disabilities, including those with complex support needs, in living a fair, just, and balanced life.

A qualitative case study examining community and leisure participation of a young adult with a severe disability will be presented. Data were collected through observations in eight settings; document reviews of individual plans; and semi-structured interviews with family members, primary support personnel, and the individual with a disability. Implications for research and practice will be discussed.
