ABC Southern Conference

Join the first annual Autism, Behavioral, and Complex Medical Needs Conference (ABC) in Southern IL.

ABC Conference participants will learn about the services and programs available to support children with special needs from birth through childhood. You can also gain strategies for making referrals and partnering with other agencies.

This year’s conference focuses on trauma. According to the conference brochure, “Not only are children and youth with developmental disabilities more likely to be exposed to trauma, but exposure to trauma makes developmental delays more likely.”

This conference targets primary care providers and their teams, including pediatricians, family physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, residents, fellows, medical students, and allied health care professionals, as well as professionals from other settings including child care, early education, home visiting, and more.
