Call for Presentations - 7th Annual Southeast Adult Autism Symposium - July 22, 2023
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

The Symposium's Planning Committee welcomes potential applicants to submit presentation proposals for the 7th Annual Southeast Adult Autism Symposium. The audience at this Symposium includes autistic adults, parents, caregivers, and service providers. We anticipate that at least 100 people will attend. This Symposium will take place in-person at the University of Tennessee - Chattanooga campus. Hotel accommodations will be provided for speakers who need to stay overnight. 

The earlier you submit a presentation proposal, the more likely it will be approved by the Symposium Planning Committee. If the Symposium Coordinator or the Symposium Planning Committee have questions about your proposal, you will be contacted. Presentation proposals that are mostly a sales pitch for your product or company are less likely to be considered. You should plan on your presentation to last an hour, including the Q&A portion; it is suggested that you allow 15-20 minutes for questions at the end of your presentation. For examples of past speaker biographies and presentation topics, please visit last year's presentation page here:
