The Northwest Down Syndrome Association is a parent-driven organization on a mission to create and nurture inclusive communities. The All Born (In) conference was founded in 2006 by the board of the NWDSA. Planned in partnership with PSU professors, educational professionals and others, the conference is an exciting opportunity for parents, caregivers, and professionals. Conference participants collaborate to create more successful classrooms for all types of learners, based on current best practices in inclusive education.
In order to ensure that conference registration is accessible to all, the NWDSA is committed to keeping registration fees unusually low for such a high-caliber event. Priced at just $50, the registration fee includes two meals, 25 breakout sessions, and keynote presentations by nationally recognized speakers.
The conference is made possible by the support of the NWDSA, MESD, Standard Insurance, and many others, and we need your help as well.
Your sponsorship dollars will help cover conference infrastructure, enabling us to continue to offer this incredible resource for a very affordable cost. We invite you to join our circle of supporters to help us meet the urgent need of over 300 participants.
We have several levels of sponsorship available to businesses, groups or agencies. Sponsors will be listed on conference materials and recognized in our press releases and on signage at the conference. Every dollar you invest is complemented volunteer hours and in-kind donations. Your sponsorship could cover scholarships for parents of children with disabilities, breakfast, lunch, speakers, and the language translation we need to make it accessible.
If you can help us empower families and staff by supporting this work, please contact Angela Frome at 503-238-0522 or afrome@nwdsa.org. Together we can erase the divide between us and them and celebrate all the members of our diverse community.
