The UAA Center for Human Development's Alaska Training Cooperative, in collaboration with the State of Alaska Senior and Disability Services, the Alaska Mental Health Trust Authority, and the Stone Soup Group, is pleased to present the 24th annual Full Lives Conference for direct services professionals and care coordinators. This year’s theme is 'Building Our Shared Future Together.'
Hosted by the UAA Center for Human Development's Alaska Training Cooperative, in collaboration with the State of Alaska Senior and Disabilities Services, the Alaska Mental Health Trust Authority, and Stone Soup Group, Full Lives draws a wide range of attendees that provide services in developmental disabilities, behavioral health, traumatic brain injuries, substance-related disorders, and senior services. Participants may include direct support professionals, direct service providers, care coordinators, case managers, mental health clinicians, community advocates, supervisors, administrators, self-advocates, caregivers, and to a lesser degree, individuals (beneficiaries) or families receiving services.
The Full Lives Conference is designed to promote professional development through keynote presentations, breakout sessions, and workshops while highlighting best practices in disability services, advocacy, and support. It encourages collaboration among service providers, policymakers, and people with disabilities, encouraging discussions on innovative solutions such as assistive technology, employment strategies, and inclusive practices. It also serves as a platform to recognize outstanding professionals in the field through an awards ceremony. With this year's theme of "Building Our Shared Future Together," the conference focuses on enhancing services, improving quality of life, and strengthening the disability support community.
This conference allows attendees the opportunity to learn and connect with fellow professionals through an interactive platform.
