The National Town Hall will take place at the University of Illinois in Chicago on November 13th. Fifteen satellite sites, along with a virtual site, will be linked via technology and live webcast. The meeting will consist of small group discussions providing each participant with the opportunity to give direct, substantive feedback. Network computers and wireless keypad technology will transform the individual discussions into synthesized recommendations representative of the Chicago and remote participants at satellite locations. Working together, the small group discussions and technologies will create a clear set of shared priorities, a unified voice, and recommendations to shape the next steps. At this unprecedented event participants will receive an extensive Discussion Guide with options for improving the lives of adults with autism and an opportunity to make a difference.
