Sharing and Learning at ANCOR Connect 2024
Members of the CP team traveled to New Mexico to attend and present a session at the ANCOR Connect 2024 conference. Over 900 participants came from across the United States to learn more about leading services and innovations in the disability field, and our CP Family was on hand to help advance useful information and learn more to help deliver on our mission to create opportunities for people with I/DD to achieve fulfilling lives.
Penny Pagliaro, Executive Director (left), and Christine Mattson, Associate Executive Director (right) of CP Unlimited’s Hudson Valley Division led a well-attended panel on Effecting Change Through Public Policy, building on our work supporting the “Traveling with Dignity” Act and other legislative and community action.
Many attendees shared how helpful the presentation was in providing a framework for change to bring back to their districts. As part of our Advocacy work, the CP team sees our local successes as an expandable strategy to deepen impact more broadly. ANCOR Connect is just the latest platform where we can share our effective and inspirational tactics to be of benefit to people with disabilities nationwide.
