Susan:

Do you have registration information - phone number and who to contact for more
information? I produce a quarterly newsletter on transition for students with
disabilities from school to adult life - it's called "What's Working in
Transition." We have a What's Happening page with training events on disability
and I would be interested in listing this event.

Thanks in advance for any information you can provide.
