Cooperative Resource Exhibit
The goal of the Religion and Spirituality Division's Cooperative Resource Exhibit is to bring together resources from many different organizations and publishing houses that are currently available to anyone involved in ministries or religious services with people with developmental disabilities and their families. Resources can include books, journals, audio-visual resources, religious education curricula, program brochures, etc. We also invite resources on areas such as spirituality, advocacy, ethics, family supports, community building, and education that may be of use to clergy, families, and laypersons in congregations.
On behalf of the Religion and Spirituality Division of the AAIDD (formerly AAMR), I would like to invite you to include some of your resources in the 2007 Cooperative Resource Exhibit for our national conference.
We have done this Cooperative Exhibit for 20 years, usually contacting publishers and resource offices early in the new year. This year, the conference is in Atlanta, May 22-24.
To find out more about the Exhibit and learn how you can submit materials, download the 2007 Entry form
and return in by April 1, 2007.
