Conferences
Since 1998, APIDC has convened three major conferences in California: Los Angeles (1999), the Bay Area (2001), and Orange County (2005). Each conference was supported by individuals, organizations and fundraising activities. Each conference was attended by hundreds of consumers and their families, agency representatives and advocates with the goal of identifying effective mechanisms to deliver culturally competent resources to API families with members facing physical or mental challenges.
A key component of these conferences has been exploring ways to educate not only API families on how to better access resources, but also to educate health providers on the specific barriers facing APIs with disabilities, to ensure the provision of culturally competent service delivery systems.
