Rebecca Miller and Amy Boulware to Present at the 10th Annual Southeast Adult Autism Symposium
Rebecca Miller and Amy Boulware will present at the 10th Annual Southeast Adult Autism Symposium at Chattanooga State Community College on Saturday, July 25, 2026. Their presentation, “Planning for Special Needs: What Comes Next at Age 18 and Beyond,” will help families and caregivers navigate the important legal and financial decisions that often arise as individuals with disabilities transition into adulthood. Key topics include government benefits such as SSI and SSDI, special needs trusts, ABLE accounts, powers of attorney, conservatorships, and practical long-term planning considerations designed to help families feel informed, prepared, and confident moving forward.
This event is open to adults with autism, parents and caregivers of adults with autism, service providers, professionals, and educators. For more information or to register for the Autism Symposium, visit the GCA Centre for Adult Autism website.
