As you know, CDS is celebrating 20 years of academic and community

excellence. We want you to be part of the celebration! Building on the

overwhelming positive outcome of previous Annual Pacific Rim Conferences and

harnessing the excitement of this anniversary, this will be a conference you

won't want to miss. We will have over 200 presentations, workshops and panel

sessions along with seminars. The schedule for all presentations will be on

the website within the next few days.

There is something for everyone including over ten topical areas,

interactive workshops, a film festival, exciting speakers and even a writing

workshop entitled, " Writing our Stories " facilitated by acclaimed author

Wood. Pre-conference activities include the International Forum

2008: Securing the Rights of Persons with Disabilities where people from all

over the world will be discussing the rights of persons with disabilities.

Updates on a weekly basis will be provided on our website.

Opportunities for exhibiting, advertising and sponsorship are available as

well and we invite you to call us to discuss options. Please consider

promoting your organization in our conference program! We are always on the

lookout for scholarship sponsors, which allow us to underwrite the costs for

self-advocates, parents, family members and others who would not otherwise

be able to afford to attend this event. We welcome your continued support.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Aloha,

Shearer and Charmaine Crockett

A premier venue for sharing diverse perspectives, stimulating new thinking
