SUMMARY:26th Annual Alabama Autism Conference
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n26th Annual Alabama
  Autism Conference\nThe 26th Annual Alabama Autism Conference is a hybrid 
 professional and community conference focused on current autism research\,
  diagnosis\, treatment\, education\, and support. Scheduled for February 2
 6\, 2027\, at the Bryant Conference Center in Tuscaloosa and online\, it b
 rings together clinicians\, educators\, researchers\, families\, advocates
 \, and autistic people.\nProgram and speakers\nThe full-day program combin
 es research with practical clinical and educational guidance. Featured ses
 sions include Joanna Lomas Mevers on elopement and toileting interventions
 \, Daniel Hoover on trauma in autistic children\, B. Blair Braden on a top
 ic still to be announced\, and a closing keynote/personal perspective from
  Kaelynn Partlow\; Elizabeth Lorah and Sheida Raley are also scheduled for
  a breakout session.\nResearch and professional development\nThe conferenc
 e is designed to translate emerging autism research into better services a
 nd supports\, while fostering collaboration across Alabama. Research poste
 rs are part of the program\, and continuing-education approvals include co
 nfirmed hours for nursing\, occupational therapy\, and social work\, with 
 several other professional approvals still pending as of the published pro
 gram.\nWho it serves\nThe audience is deliberately broad: healthcare profe
 ssionals\, service providers\, educators\, parents\, advocates\, researche
 rs\, and autistic individuals are all included. That mix distinguishes the
  event from a narrowly academic research meeting\, since sessions are inte
 nded to connect evidence with everyday clinical\, educational\, family\, a
 nd community practice.\nPractical details\nThe main conference runs 8:00 a
 .m.–4:30 p.m. on Friday\, February 26\, 2027\, with registration beginni
 ng at 7:00 a.m.\; the University calendar lists the broader event window t
 hrough 5:00 p.m. A separate pre-conference workshop is planned for Februar
 y 25\, and main-conference registration ranges from a $75 student rate to 
 $149 early-bird and $199 standard rates\, with additional group and Univer
 sity of Alabama employee rates.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\
