Dear Colleagues,
The Marbridge Senior Management Team and Board of Trustees want to formally invite you to the fourth annual:
Marbridge Executive Leadership Symposium for Post Secondary Providers
Marbridge Foundation, 2310 Bliss Spillar, Manchaca, TX 78652
April 27-29, 2016
Marbridge was founded in 1953, located on the edge of the Hill Country just 12 miles south of downtown Austin and is a residential training and educational community for adults with intellectual disabilities. The goal of this symposium remains the same: bring together like-minded professionals in leadership positions who serve residents of varying abilities to discuss challenges, build relationships, and work together so we may better serve individuals with special needs and their families.
Based upon feedback from past attendees, we will continue to offer a networking breakfast, lunch and dinner on each day to allow for maximum opportunities to engage in meaningful conversation about our work. We would also welcome each organization to bring program brochures to be included on our resource table and shared with attendees.
Coalition for Community Choice (CCC) – The CCC is an alliance of organizations, businesses, and housing professionals that strive to meet the housing and employment demand for an array of life options for those with intellectual/developmental disabilities (I/DD). The CCC will have their spring meeting at Marbridge on Friday, April 29th and have extended an invitation to interested Symposium attendees to attend the gathering. Please contact the National Coordinator if you would like to attend are not yet part of the network: [email protected].
