ARC of Kentucky Annual Conference

The ARC of Kentucky is hosting their annual conference on April 15-16 at the Hilton Garden Inn on Crittenden Drive.  The conference is for individuals with disabilities, family members, friends, policy makers, service providers and more.  There will be breakout session covering a range of topics from self-advocacy to education issues to community living.  I know lots of people have questions about the Michelle P waiver and other waiver programs and there are special sessions that discuss those as well.

You can register for one or both days,  If you need assistance to pay for the conference, stipends are available through the Kentucky Council on Developmental Disabilities.  The Kentucky Council on Developmental Disabilities offers Consumers Involvement Funds to assist persons with developmental disabilities, family members, and their guardians financial assistance to participate in conferences, etc. For an application and additional information call 1-877-367-5332 or visit their website at www.kddc.org.
