A Spectrum of Supports: 2026 Region 16 Autism Conference

Join us for the 2026 Region 16 Autism Conference! This year's conference is all about turning insight into action as we share practical tools and strategies that help individuals with autism learn, grow, and thrive at every stage of life. We are thrilled to welcome Morgan van Diepen, author and creator of ABA Visualized, as our keynote speaker! In her keynote, Morgan will share clear, visual strategies to help educators and families build supportive, strength-based environments. She'll also lead a breakout session based on her book, Behavior Essentials Visualized, offering tools to make behavior support approachable and easy to implement. In addition to our keynote, participants can choose from a variety of engaging breakout sessions covering topics such as mental health and autism, the benefits of play and exercise, communication supports and the transition to adulthood (18+). Join us for a day of inspiration, collaboration, and hands-on learning as we work together to support every learner's unique strengths and help each individual reach their full potential.
