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.

Communication is a basic human right and is the means by which all other rights are realized. All people communicate and are presumed to have an active interest in communicating decisions & choices. Research indicates that when provided with systematic instruction and support 98% of people make progress in learning a more traditional communication system. Yet, data suggests that there remain individuals who do not yet have augmentative communication systems in place in 3rd grade and students who leave high school without communication systems. Join TASH in a National Call to action to change this reality.
