Thank You for Supporting a Day for Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (ID/DD) Residential Services Providers at Convention

AHCA/NCAL’s constituency education program for ID/DD providers was held last month in Nashville, TN, and was packed with motivational and educational speakers. The keynote speaker, John O’Leary (pictured), was a curious nine-year-old boy. Playing with fire and gasoline, he created a massive explosion in his garage and was burned on 100% of his body. Given less than 1% chance of survival, John is proof of the power of the human spirit. Using his fire story as a backdrop, John inspired participants to take back their life, see the abundant possibility within their professional and personal challenges, and change the world. Participants also had the opportunity to hear from other top-notch speakers. To learn more about this day, which will be held again next year at the AHCA/NCAL Convention in Las Vegas, please don’t hesitate to contact AHCA’s Senior Director of Not for Profit & Constituent Services, Dana Halvorson.
