Reach for the Stars Call for Proposals
Calling All Stars to Present at RI's Self-Advocacy Event of the Year!
If you’re interested in presenting at Reach for the Stars, RI’s 2022 Statewide Self-Advocacy Conference, we’d love to have you!
CLICK HERE, or on the button below, to open the Presentation Proposal Form and answer a few simple questions about your session. Let us know what you’d like to talk about, who’s on your presentation team, and when you’re available to speak at this year’s conference.
Please Note: As a Self-Advocacy Conference, we ask that your team include someone who has first-hand experience living with an Intellectual/Developmental Disability (aka, a “Self-Advocate”).
If you’re not sure who to ask, we can help! Use the presentation form to let us know if you need additional presenters, and we’ll connect you with experienced Self-Advocates who are knowledgeable about your topic and available to join your team.
If you need assistance with your session, our Peer Mentors are also available to help create PowerPoint slides, graphics, and other interactive resources for your presentation.
Note: The deadline to submit your proposal is Wednesday, June 1st
Learn something new and add your voice to the conversation as we share information and ideas about living the life you want, the way you want at this free virtual event! While there's no cost to register, everyone who plans to join us at Reach for the Stars needs to register. This includes presenters!
If you haven't already done so, click the link below to register for this year's event. If you're presenting with others, please make sure that everyone who will be joining you completes a separate registration form, even if they don't plan to attend the rest of the conference!
Once you submit your presentation form, our Conference Planning Committee will review your presentation, and contact you if they have any questions. Be sure and check your email the following week. We'll also be in touch by Wednesday, June 1st to let you know whether or not we're able to add your session to this year's agenda.
