Planning for the Good Life Conference
On Wednesday, October 11, 2023, the State Support Team Region 3 is hosting an all-day (9:00-4:00) event that we are calling Planning for the Good Life (Graduation Pathways & Beyond). Our target audience for this VIRTUAL event will be school personnel who work both directly and indirectly with students with disabilities, adult service agencies, such as county boards of developmental disabilities & rehabilitation services, parent mentors, community support agencies, career-technical education professionals, and members of the business community. The day will feature presentations from a wide variety of agencies and organizations that support self-determination, self-advocacy, supported decision-making, and promote independence and success for individuals with disabilities in Ohio. This website houses information and resources from all the presenters at the conference.
