2021 Virtual Early Intervention & Preschool Conference
The Early Intervention and Preschool Conference is designed to share information and develop skill for professionals and families who work with children with disabilities (ages birth to five).
Due to the rising numbers of COVID-19 cases throughout Alabama and our concern for the health and safety of all involved, UCPAL will be transitioning the 2021 Early Intervention & Preschool Conference to a virtual format. Anyone who has pre-registered will be transferred over to the virtual registration with no additional action required on your part. Registration is now open and the early bird rate ends October 8th.
