4th ANNUAL VIRTUAL 504 CONFERENCE

Julie Weatherly, Esq.

Have you heard that Section 504 might be going away? We will address this issue at the CASE 4th Annual Virtual 504 Conference on June 9 and 10, 2025, where we will again offer a wealth of learning opportunities designed to enhance and empower educational leaders. Whether you're looking to deepen your foundational knowledge or explore advanced strategies, this event is a must-attend for those wanting to strengthen their understanding of solid Section 504 practices and processes.

Since last year's Conference, things have obviously changed at the federal level, which could lead to significant changes to the way the Office of Civil Rights (OCR) and the courts address disability discrimination claims under 504 and ADA. We'll be diving deep into these updates and exploring their implications for your district. 
 
Don't miss out—this is the perfect opportunity for your 504 school teams and administrative leaders to stay ahead of the curve as it relates to Basic and Advanced 504 issues. Get ready to sharpen your skills and elevate your understanding!
