This full-day event features a dynamic lineup of expert-led sessions and collaborative conversations covering a wide range of topics that matter most to our community, including:

• School safety strategies for students with exceptionalities

• Social-emotional learning for all ages
• DVRS services and supports

• ...and much more!

In addition to formal workshops, attendees can participate in ASAH’s Collaborative Conversations series during workshop #2 —informal, peer-driven discussions designed to spark dialogue, share practical ideas, and problem-solve real challenges in the field.

This year’s Conference features a dedicated Parent Track, offering focused workshops designed specifically for families—along with a discounted registration rate to support and encourage participation. The Parent Track is generously sponsored by The Alliance of Special Education Schools of North Jersey, a network of special education schools committed to empowering families through knowledge and connection.

We are especially excited to kick off the event with a Pre-Conference Reception on Sunday, October 26, from 5:00–7:00 PM at the Glass Woods Tavern, located inside the Hyatt. This reception will include an exclusive unveiling of ASAH’s name change and new logo and provide a welcoming space to connect with colleagues before the main event. Thank you to our premier sponsor, Porzio, Bromberg & Newman, P.C., and our supporting sponsor, Nisivoccia LLP for their tremendous support.

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn, share, and grow with colleagues from across the state. Mark your calendar and be part of this inspiring day!

This conference would not be possible without the overwhelming support of our Partners—whose commitment helps make this impactful day of professional development and collaboration a reality.
