Such legislation generally en- courages greater transparency and understanding between all parties. Anyone interested in the issue is welcome to attend, in- cluding lawyers who practice family law, past or current foster parents and all others who want to learn from or contribute to the discussion. The lawmakers said it’s possible that a foster parents bill of rights could be considered in the 2015 legislative session, which begins on Jan. 13 in Pierre.

Building off the momentum of that symposium, the Center has now opened registration for its second-annual sympo- sium, to be held March 30– April 1 in Chamberlain at Cedar Shore Resort, with the theme of “Promoting Leader- ship and Engaging Communi- ties.” The purpose of the Spring Symposium is to bring a myr- iad of Center interactive activ- ities, trainings and workshops to one location, all at one three-day event. The keynote speaker this year is Andy Im- parato, Association of Univer- sity Centers on Disabilities executive director, which is the membership organization supporting the nation’s 67 University Centers for Excel- lence in Developmental Dis- abilities, one of which is the USD Center for Disabilities. A brief overview of topics at the symposium includes using technology to upgrade everyday life, including live demonstrations of how the Center has put telehealth models into practice; imple- menting effective transition tools and practices; support- ing individuals in integrated competitive employment; and so much more. Like last year, there will also be World Café and topical table discussions, where attendees can share their knowledge and experi- ence and work together as a team to discuss how to over- come job-related challenges and community issues. “From all corners of the state, the topics of leadership and community engagement are being discussed as issues people face every day,” said Wendy Parent-Johnson, Cen- ter for Disabilities executive director. “This symposium is the opportunity to bring peo- ple together—persons with a disability, direct service providers, advocates, families of individuals with disabili- ties, educators, employment specialists, community sup- port specialists, case man- agers, rehabilitation counselors and more—and work on solving these issues to enhance the lives of all South Dakotans.” For more information on the Center, go to www.usd.edu/cd/.
