“The only conference that brings ALL health disciplines together for people with IDD (Intellectual & Developmental Disabilities).”
2026 Theme
Saddle Up! Together We Thrive
People with IDD 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. In 2026, One Voice is headed to Texas, so pack your boots and hat as we traverse the changing landscape of IDD and explore how we can not only survive during times of change, but how we can thrive.
Join us as we map out the route to IDD Health through our five tracks: Advocacy, Curriculum, Complexities in IDD, Technology & Behavior, and Clinical Practice.
