I met Jacquelyn at the Inclusion BC conference in Victoria earlier this year. I mentioned our conference and how we want to bring more self-advocate voices to our families and allies and she was happy to agree to come present! We hope you will be able to make it to see her speak at Connecting to Strengthen Advocacy in Education, our 5th education advocacy conference held October 18th and 19th at the Civic Hotel in Surrey, BC.
