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.

It is imperative that we continue the discussion of how current policies and practices can inhibit full inclusion of marginalized groups in schools, communities and workplaces. Though the viewpoint of parents is often devalued and dismissed, they remain staunch supporters of equality. Parents have always been at the forefront of efforts to ensure equitable access to resources and supports that are available to the public. When equipped with knowledge of research-based best practices, parents can become powerful advocates, partners in policy-making and fully-informed, engaged citizens adept at holding government officials and community leaders accountable.
