Thinking you, clients, and students may be interested in this from Ohio State re an upcoming ADA edu conference this year, calling for & student poster submissions, due March 22 and call by March 27.   Perspective from consumer, effects & experiential stories re living w/ a disability is thematically focused.

I’ll be submitting about how SMI’s changed my world as I knew it, academically, professionally, and goals, multifaceted pharmacological, medical, biopsychosocial models of treatment favor rehabilitation recovery (or at least try to).

The good part is that you get into the conference for free.  Yippee.
