Introducing ConneXtion! This year, we’re transforming the event you’ve come to know and love into something bigger, bolder, and more inclusive—a true convention experience that reflects the vibrancy and diversity of the autism community. Day 1 will be a celebration of resources, connection & advocacy! Imagine a real-life pop-up version of all the support, tools, and resources we provide online, brought to life in one dynamic, festive space! Free and open to the entire community, this day is designed for all ages and stages. Day 2: Elevating Education and Innovation Earn CEUs while experiencing the sessions you've come to know at our conferences. Led by trailblazing presenters, offering practical insights, bold new approaches, and forward-thinking ideas. For autistic individuals, loved ones, and professionals in the field, Day 2 is packed with opportunities to grow and learn. This is your chance to engage with topics that address both immediate needs and long-term innovation, as we work together to reimagine systems of support and connection. We encourage adults and older teen self advocates who are able to sit through sessions to attend this day. Child care is not available.

At ConneXtion, we’re more than a convention—we’re the ultimate connector. We link individuals and families with the resources they need and unite the changemakers who can transform our community. Together, we’re shaping a future that’s more inclusive, accessible, and inspired. Join us as we evolve this cherished event into a movement that bridges gaps, sparks ideas, and strengthens the autism community like never before. Let’s connect. Let’s create. Let’s transform.
