The Spring 2009 DAN! Conference is around the corner, April 16 - 19 at the Renaissance Waverly Hotel in Atlanta, Georgia.  We know budgets are stretched "wafer thin" this year, even more than in the past. Some of you will be able to attend Autism One  in Chicago. For others, Atlanta is an easier destination. We're fortunate to have a choice of wonderful conferences, including DAN! mini-conferences and the National Autism Association Conference in Ft. Lauderdale in November. (Take a look at the "save the dates" at the bottom of this post for DAN! mini-conferences and the Fall DAN! info in Dallas, Texas.)

A new feature at DAN! is the "Demo Room." Defeat Autism Now! Director Jane Johnson explains:

I'm very excited about the demo room.  From noon Friday until noon Sunday we're going to have a walk-in demonstartion room staffed by healthcare professionals where people can get help with things like giving MB-12 shots:

*DEMO ROOM: While lectures are essential to our understanding of why we must do what we must do, ultimately the information is only as good as the hands that are charged with putting these effective treatments into action.  Stop by the *WAVERLY ROOM (to the right as you walk out of the Grand Ballroom next to the business office and library) for free one-to-one tutorials by experienced healthcare professionals. Topics include administering B-12 injections, scheduling supplements, tracking treatment success, teaching pill swallowing, and more.  Open until noon on Sunday.
