The 24th Collaborations Conference brings together disability professionals, educators and advocates to enhance quality services in VA.


The annual Collaborations Conference brings together rehabilitation professionals, educators and advocates for the purpose of enhancing services that lead to successful employment and quality community-based services for individuals with disabilities. 

The Collaborations Conference is a joint conference hosted by a partnership between the Virginia Rehabilitation Association (VRA), the Virginia Association of Community Rehabilitation Programs (vaACCSES) and the Virginia Association of Persons Supporting Employment First (VA-APSE).  The only one of its kind in the country.

This year's agenda is packed with exciting learning sessions and excellent networking opportunities - and virtual! We hope these opportunities and tools will inspire participants to transform Virginia into a leader in the provision of quality community-based services.  Attendees include state and local public and private providers of community-based services - both DD Waiver and MH Services, private not-for-profit providers, school transition professionals, local CSB providers, DARS ESOs, AbilityOne providers, mental health service providers, OneStop workplace professionals, and individuals with disabilities.

Join us for an energizing and inspiring conference filled with best practice information, as well as opportunities to renew and expand relationships with your public and private sector peers.
