Join us this July 17-18th at the beautiful campus of Southwestern University for the 21st Annual TxP2P Parent Statewide Conference! This year brings exciting updates, including a new location and a more affordable, all-inclusive experience.

Registration is less than half the cost of last year for families and includes suite-style dorm lodging, full access to all sessions, and meals in the campus dining hall - featuring omelet, vegan, allergy-free and pizza bars, plus a grill for burgers. Enjoy maximum flexibility with breakout sessions—no pre-selection required. Simply
choose from topics like Advocacy, Behavior, Transition, and Special Education when you arrive.

We will have the sessions and presenter list available soon!

Designed with families in mind, the conference offers safe, on-site childcare throughout conference hours, so you can fully engage in sessions. Teens and young adults can join the Peer-to-Peer Summit, while siblings can participate in our popular Sibshops - each offering meaningful, age-appropriate experiences (see program
details for specific requirements).

And don’t miss Family Fun Night on Friday from 5–7 p.m., an evening of games and activities hosted by sponsors, and a great opportunity to connect with both new and familiar faces. Experience a weekend of learning, support and community in the heart of Georgetown! We look forward to seeing you there!

Do you want to be involved in the community but don't have a lot of time? Are you occasionally free to put in an hour or two helping out? WE NEED YOU!

We are a five-member board of moms with a big mission to help people with disabilities in our community, and sometimes we could really use more legs to do the legwork.

If you'd like to help out, please join our GroupMe called FAVs--FUNctional Abilities Volunteers. When we have a need, we'll send it out and see who can help. Together we can make a bigger difference!
