Imagine More's 2021 Conference Get That Good Life! Registrations are now open
Wednesday, October 27
Thursday, October 28
We all want the Good Life, for ourselves and for the people we care about.
But, traditionally, people with disability have been denied access to (or given a watered-down version of) many of the things that make life meaningful, interesting, and fun.
So this conference is all about identifying the things that make life good and how to ensure that people with disability have access to these. It will focus on strategies that create wonderfully ordinary lives for people with disability.
The conference will unashamedly share high expectations. You’ll see countless examples of people with disability who
• have chosen an ordinary life path
• hold meaningful and valued roles
• participate in and contribute to their local communities with the right support
We’ve invited an exciting group of local, national and international speakers to join us to share their insights, stories, and best practice methods. Expect to come away with plenty of actionable ideas!
Registration provides participants with access to the following:
• Monday, 18 October – Pre-conference webinar - Inclusive Education with Sarah Humphreys
• Thursday, 21 October – Pre-conference webinar - Customised Employment with Milton Tyree
• Monday, 25 October – Pre-conference webinar - Relationships with Janet Klees
• Wednesday, 27 October - Conference Day 1 - A day filled with virtual events
• Thursday, 28 October - Conference Day 2 - A day filled with virtual events
• An online portal to watch the events and the replays
Tickets
We are thrilled to be able to offer free conference registration as it is fully funded by the Australian Government Department of Social Services through an Individual Capacity Building grant.
While recordings of most presentations will be available after the event, we’d still love to see as many people as possible attending the conference on the two days. You’ll be able to ask speakers your questions in real-time, and you’ll get to watch some presentations that will not be recorded.
We hope you'll join us for this exciting online event! More information at the link below.
