              2004 AUCD Annual Meeting and Conference

              Building Partnerships for Full Participation:

              Systems Change Through Research, Education and Service

              Hyatt Regency in Bethesda, Maryland

              The Annual Meeting and Conference provides an opportunity

              to celebrate partners and to explore how

              partnerships, networks and other formal and informal

              collaborations can help realize the vision of

              full participation of persons with disabilities and their

              families in the life of our communities and nation. A diverse

              array of partners is needed to achieve this vision. Real and

              potential partners include individuals with disabilities; our

              universities and centers; state, national and international agencies;

              policymakers; and the world's citizens. Working with persons

              with disabilities and their families, university centers and

              individuals have the ability to strengthen existing networks and

              create new partnerships in research, education and service

              that lead to systems change for full participation.

              Participation:   Members of the UCEDD network and others
