STATE OF THE ART 2020

IMPORTANT UPDATE: The executive planning committee has voted to cancel this year's conference, based on the current best practice recommendations to avoid the spread of COVID-19. We are completely saddened by this decision, as we truly love the annual opportunity to gather as a community to increase opportunities for students with intellectual disability in higher education.

The Student Leadership portion of the conference is moving to a virtual event on October 8-9, more information can be found on the SLC page.
We will also host a virtual college fair and look forward to continuing the mission of increasing inclusive higher education opportunities for all.

Thank you for your support of State of the Art. We plan to be back next fall in Syracuse, NY.
Please reach out to us if you have questions at kgrifasi@syr.edu and rkorpant@gmu.edu. Thank you.

STATE OF THE ART CONFERENCE ON INCLUSIVE POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION
AND INDIVIDUALS WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY

This popular conference of 300+ participants provides opportunities for colleges of all sizes, universities, researchers, program staff, parents and self-advocates to learn about the current state of research and practice in the field, and to network with each other. Panels that include faculty and staff from postsecondary education initiatives, parents, self-advocates, and other experts, share effective practices during break-out sessions with opportunities for group discussion. The Student Leadership Conference is a new, parallel conference which brings more high school and college students into the conversation.
