Since the first Pacific Rim (Pac Rim) Conference in 1985, the scope and size
of this premier event has grown to include participants from the U.S.
Mainland, Alaska, Pacific Islands Nations, Japan, Australia, the Philippines
and numerous other countries. Persons with disabilities, family members,
researchers, and service providers join policy-makers and nationally
recognized speakers in the field of disabilities to participate in the Pac Rim
Conference to learn
from each other and to share resources for communities to fully accept and
support persons with disabilities.
This year's theme, "A Rainbow of Abilities" celebrates the diversity and
the opportunities available for persons with disabilities. Visit us on the
Web
