First Annual Oklahoma State Conference on ASD
We are excited to announce that planning is underway for the first statewide conference on autism in Oklahoma. The Oklahoma Autism Network convened a committee to begin planning for a conference to be held November 6 and 7, 2009 in Norman, Oklahoma. The committee includes state agencies, parent-led organizations, and other groups involved in providing services for individuals with autism in Oklahoma.
This conference is a great opportunity for various groups to come together in an effort to provide information and resources for parents and professionals. One of the primary objectives of the Oklahoma Autism Network is to provide credible information for parents to make informed choices regarding intervention for their child. While planning is in the very early stages, the vision of the planning committee is to provide a breadth of information, including current research and best practice in educational and psychosocial interventions, biomedical interventions, family life, and medical aspects of autism. Watch our website for updates as information becomes available.
