Support for State & Provincial SUBDIVISIONS

Subdivision Conferences

CASE staff is pleased to support and attend state and provincial subdivision conferences upon request and staff availability. Staff can provide keynote presentations, a CASE membership/publications booth, targeted breakout sessions, or other needs as applicable. Subdivisions are asked to provide CASE booth, travel, and lodging expenses. Subdivisions may choose to submit an honorarium to the CASE office, but this is not required! If interested in scheduling with CASE staff, contact information can be found at this link.

CASE is also pleased to promote state and provincial subdivision conferences in the weekly CASE Member Update!  Please share event information with Dr. Brigid Bright, CASE Associate Executive Director, at [email protected].


Subdivision Presidents and Executive Directors Monthly Zoom

A subdivision presidents and executive directors Zoom call is held on the third Thursday of each month from 6:00 pm-7:00 pm (CT) to share the latest information from CASE, highlight important happenings in special education, and support state and provincial subdivision leadership. For more information, please contact Debbi Magnifico at [email protected]
