12th Annual Inclusion Conference Tickets

The Arc Community Advocates and several other local agencies and non-profits team up every year to present the Annual Inclusion Conference.

With over two million individuals in Michigan who have an intellectual or developmental disability (i/dd) our goal is to empower, educate, and engage all people in our community.
