Over the past year, the association leadership has worked hard to rebuild NAASLN to meet the growing demands on education and vocational service providers working with a variety of adults with special learning needs -- learning disabilities, visual and hearing impairments, developmental disabilities, and physical disabilities. We invite you, your organization, and your membership to join forces with NAASLN to forge the pathway to meet our vision. It is our passion to bring together providers and support services into a single organization to stand united, advocate for legislation and resources, share research and best practices, develop collaborative partnerships, and forge a future filled with enhanced opportunities for adults with special learning needs. Here's how you can become involved: • Attend the NAASLN National Conference -- Forging the Future, September 13 - 15, in Milwaukee, co-sponsored with the Greater Milwaukee Literacy Coalition. This conference will offer over 50 sessions for practitioners and administrators presenting research, cutting-edge models, practical ways to better serve adults with special learning needs, as well as up-to-date information on state and national initiatives. • Be a presenter. Across the country many programs have been developed with proven methods that empower and assist the adult with special learning needs to advance. Share your experiences and expertise with others. Just request a Conference Session Proposal Form (from NAASLN@aol.com)-- talk with your colleagues, create a session, and return the form by May 15th! • Become a member of NAASLN. Join NAASLN and become part of a growing group of providers that are "speaking out" for the rights of adults with special learning needs. We welcome your commitment and look forward to your involvement in NAASLN. To receive NAASLN membership and conference information please contact us at NAASLN@aol.com
