⭐ LID CON 2026 is coming to ESC Region 13 on June 10-11, and we are excited to announce our keynote speaker, Ayo Jones.

In her keynote, Chase the Flood: Navigating Change and Finding the Path to Higher Ground, Ayo draws from nearly 20 years in special education and her powerful Hurricane Harvey survival story to help educators move from survival mode to unshakable clarity. When the pressures rise, panic is expensive and clarity is priceless.

LID CON is designed for teachers, paraeducators, administrators, instructional coaches, and service providers who support students with significant cognitive disabilities.

⭐ Early Bird pricing ends March 1 with code LIDEarlyBird
⭐ Paraeducator rate available
⭐ Group discounts available
