2018 Conference Recap

The SC Department of Education – Office of Special Education Services (SCDE-OSES) will be co-sponsoring our annual conference as part of a collaboration called the Behavioral Alliance of South Carolina (BASC).

With their joint efforts we set records! This was the largest registration, attendance, and number of speakers we’ve had to date.

Our attendees came from 18 states including Alabama, California, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Maryland, Minnesota, Mississippi, North Carolina, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia and Wyoming. That is an immeasurable experience networking with our Sister states as well as other that we may want to adopt their successful program ideas. We all share the same purpose in linking together a chain of care for children in our communities.
