The Leadership Summit focuses on developing the next generation of leaders in autism services. Participants will learn from experts in the autism field, including members of the CASP Board of Directors. There is ample opportunity for interaction and small group discussion, ensuring that attendees will not only expand their leadership skills but also make valuable professional connections. This event is geared towards junior-level leadership at your organization (less than 10 years of service) and is limited to the first 120 registrants. We hope you can join us!
