Elevate: Advancing Practice with Purpose

Join us for Catalight’s annual virtual conference, Elevate. In 2027, the theme Advancing Practice With Purpose focuses on applying research with the intention to improve care for individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities. It emphasizes evaluating what works, for whom and in which contexts, ensuring care is both evidence-based and responsive to individual needs. Continuing education credits will be available for qualified attendees. 

Open to all licensed and certified practitioners, self-advocates and caregivers. 

Catalight Care Services in-network practitioners continue to receive complimentary registration. 

Let’s move beyond theory with intention — focusing on what matters most, listening to the communities we serve and applying what we learn to create meaningful, lasting impact.
