THANK YOU FOR JOINING US

at our 24th Annual Educational Conference

 

The only conference that brings ALL health disciplines together for people with IDD (Intellectual & Developmental Disabilities).

 
 
 
 

2027 Theme

United We Advocate | 25 Years of Changing IDD Care—and What's Possible.

People with IDD continue to face more healthcare challenges than the nuero-typical population — and in a healthcare landscape that is ever-changing.

AADMD’s One Voice Conference is where all health professionals come together in one voice to change this. The year 2027 is an important milestone for AADMD - we are celebrating 25 years of making a difference in IDD Healthcare. For this monumental year, One Voice is headed to Washington DC, where policy is paramount, advocacy is vital, and where difference makers band together. Join us for this historic conference as we walk the paths paved by the disability and healthcare activists who came before us — and explore how we continue that legacy and dream of what’s possible for tomorrow.

We’ll map out the future of IDD Health through four tracks: Advocacy & Policy | Educational Innovations | Emerging Technology and AI | Best Practices & Team-Based Best Practices.
