“Western Winds: Forward Thinker of the Future”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Welcome to the TAD 2011 Conference to be held June 16-18! This conference
\nwill be different from traditional conferences. This conference theme
\nfocuses on \u201cFuture Thinkers!\u201d Our keynote speakers and workshops will focus
\non \u201cthinking outside the box!\u201d<\/p>\n

We have Mark Gobble and Carrie Lou Garberoglio as our opening and
\nclosing speakers. Those two people were responsible for the recent event
\n\u201cTEDxislay\u201d held at ACC on May 15, 2010. The TEDxislay event focused on Deaf
\nspeakers who are future thinkers.<\/p>\n

Our next speaker is Howard Rosenblum. He is our newest Executive Manager for
\nNAD office in Silver Spring, Maryland. We are thrilled to have him accept
\nour invitation to speak at this conference.<\/p>\n

We are excited to have newest workshops to present at this conference. The
\nbuzz word around Deaf leaders in California is \u201cDeafhood\u201d written by Dr.
\nPaddy Ladd. Dr. Donald Grushin, author of Dr.DonG \u201es videoclips on
\nYoutube.com, has accepted the invitation to do a 3-hour long workshop on
\n\u201cDeafhood\u201d.<\/p>\n

Marina Fanshteyn will do a presentation on \u201cFinancial Success Principles\u201d.
\nShe was one of the co-founders of Deaf Business Expo held in Houston in May
\n2010. We are waiting to hear on confirmation from other workshop
\npresenters.<\/p>\n

Our Young Adult Fest will be underway at the same time the TAD conference is
\nheld. DARS counselors can send young adults 17-22 to this workshop. We will
\nhave a Deaf Rapper as the entertainment for this special youth event. There
\nwill be more workshops coming up and we will announce them as we go! Come
\nall!<\/p>\n

SWCID Community College for the Deaf & Hard of Hearing Persons will be
\nhosting the Texas Association of the Deaf (TAD) on our Campus on June
\n16-18, 2011. The TAD is an organization for persons who are deaf or hard of
\nhearing. It is a membership organization to provide information and
\neducation, to bring the viewpoint on various issues affecting the lives of
\nthose who are deaf or hard of hearing at all levels of the community. It has
\nproven its commitment to address the needs of deaf and hard of hearing
\nmembers for more than a century. TAD was an important part of seeing that
\nSWCID was established more than thirty years ago.<\/p>\n

The theme for the conference is \u201cWestern Winds: Forward Thinkers of the
\nFuture!\u201d. Those attending will be deaf and hard of hearing individuals,
\nprofessionals who work with those with deaf\/hard of hearing individuals and
\ndeaf children.<\/p>\n

We are calling for presenters who wish to do their topic during the TAD
\nConference. We ask that your topic focus be related to our theme of
\n\u201cForward Thinkers and Current Concerns\u201d.<\/p>\n
