Why come to Conference?
“I do not believe there are any words to truly describe the happiness and relief to join a community that understands! Even though we are surrounded by family, friends, and a wonderful team of specialists, therapists, and caregivers it can still feel very isolating. I met so many families and staff members that were armed with experience to shed light on so many unanswered questions.” – Maggie B., first-time attendee in 2023
