TN Disability will be posting giant sticky notes on the walls of the main meeting room (Cascades A at the Fall Creek Falls Lodge). Each sticky note will introduce a hot topic in disability policy. The text of the sticky notes is accessible at this link. We will encourage attendees to add your own small sized sticky note with a comment or question to our large sticky notes as you are able throughout the event. Staff will also be onsite to assist.
