The State of the Art Conference (SOTA) provides provides opportunities for colleges, universities, researchers, program staff, parents and self-advocates to learn about the current state of research and practice in the field of inclusive postsecondary education, and to network with each other. Conference speakers include faculty and staff from postsecondary education initiatives, parents, self-advocates, and other experts—sharing effective practices and leading group discussions.
The parallel Student Leadership Conference brings current and prospective college students into the conversation with opportunities to learn useful tools for the transition to college life, expand their skills as student advocates and leaders, and meet peers from across the country.
We are dedicated to fostering authentic inclusion for individuals with Intellectual Disabilities (ID) in higher education and the broader community. This commitment extends to actively seeking exhibitors who align with this mission. SOTA seeks sponsors and exhibitors who prioritize the experiences and voices of the disabled community.
