Abilities Without Limits Conference and Expo
📍 Dalton Convention Center
Formerly known as the North Georgia Autism Conference, this event has evolved in response to the voices of our community. Families, caregivers, educators, and providers expressed the need for a conference that supports and celebrates individuals of all abilities and developmental differences. While continuing to serve and support the autism community, the Abilities Without Limits Conference expands its reach to include children and adults with developmental differences and delays across the lifespan. Together, we are creating a more inclusive space for learning, connection, resources, and empowerment for every individual and every family.
