OCALICON, the premier autism and disabilities conference, launched in 2007 with a mission to bring together professionals, families, and leaders committed to improving outcomes for people with disabilities. Since then, it has grown into a dynamic gathering place for those who use and develop a wide range of tools, practices, and supports across home, school, work, and community settings.The conference features sessions spanning autism spectrum disorder, deaf/hard of hearing, blind/visual impairments, and other low incidence disabilities reflecting the diverse needs of the communities we serve.For 13 years, OCALICON was held in OCALI s hometown of Columbus, Ohio. In 2020, we moved online and became OCALICONLINE, expanding access to participants across the country and around the world. Through the years, our goal has remained constant: to deliver a world class learning experience that inspires change and expands access to meaningful opportunities for people with disabilities.We believe in:The power of passionate people coming together.Creating meaningful opportunities to share ideas, resources, and successes.The impact that emerges when diverse perspectives spark conversation, understanding, and action.This is the foundation of OCALICONLINE and the vision we continue to build on each year. |
