Past Events
This annual event brings together Person Centered Thinking Trainers and Candidates from locations throughout the Southwest to learn from each other about the amazing work that is going on to support people to get better lives. You don't have to be a certified trainer or trainer candidate. If you are a certified trainer with the Learning Community on Person Centered Practices you have to attend a Gathering annually to maintain your certification.
Texas Center for Disabilities Studies at University of Texas and the Texas Technology Access Project will showcase and let you try out assistive technology from the Texas Technology Access Program that enhances communication and mobility.
