Pretendly is glad to be gearing up for the A+ Autism Conference, in which we were invited to participate as a vendor. We’re eager to share our neurodiverse family’s story and fun clothing, accessories, and gifts designed from our daughters’ original artwork.

The Autism Conference is an annual event sponsored by the Autism Professional Learning and Universal Supports Project (A+), the Autism Training and Technical Assistance Project (ATTA), and Autism McLean.

The conference goals are to promote acceptance, increase understanding and implementation of evidence-based practices and interventions, and outline services around Autism. The conference will provide professional development and networking opportunities for individuals on the spectrum, families, students, educators, and professionals.

This year's conference will be held at Bone Student Center at Illinois State University (ISU) in Normal, IL as well as a Virtual option. Admission is $50 including a continental breakfast and lunch. Check back at AutismPlusIL.org/conference periodically as they release information about speaker line ups, networking events, and more!
