💜Who should attend the TLC Pathways Conference, and why is it important?

Our Executive Director, Maura Byron, or as we call her, Mo, took some time to share why this conference was created and why this information can be so valuable for families of individuals with developmental disabilities, caregivers, and members of our community.

Whether you’re a parent or caregiver navigating a new diagnosis, preparing for the transition to adulthood, or simply want to better understand how to support individuals with developmental disabilities, this conference is for you.

There is so much to navigate at every stage. Knowing what resources are available, what questions to ask, and what steps to take next can make a meaningful difference for individuals and their families.

We invite anyone who wants to learn alongside families, professionals, and others in our community to join us. When we take the time to educate ourselves today, we help create a more informed and supportive community for generations to come.

🕐The countdown to TLC Pathways has officially started! We’re getting closer to September 26, and we hope you’ll be in the room with us.

🤳Watch to hear why Mo believes this information matters, then register and join us on September 26! 💜
