Focusing on self-directed services in Minnesota, the Self-direction Connection Conference is asking people with lived experience to share your knowledge with one another. In a first of its kind conference in Minnesota people will gather to discuss trends and their experience using Consumer Directed Community Supports (CDCS) and Consumer Support Grant (CSG).

Meet other people using CDCS and CSG and connect with one other. Visit with old friends and make new ones.

New this year – The conference is moving to the DoubleTree by Hilton Airport Hotel in Bloomington and we are adding a welcome reception on October 22nd.

This annual event is a unique opportunity to:

  • Learn from experts and innovators in the field of self-direction
  • Share your experiences, challenges, and successes
  • Connect with a vibrant community of individuals who are shaping the future of self-directed supports

Whether you’re just beginning your self-direction journey or have years of experience, this conference is designed to inform, inspire, and bring us together in meaningful ways. Please share this with anyone you think would enjoy the conference. We are also seeking individuals interested in speaking or assisting with the conference. 

Cost is $100.00. People using CDCS  can use Training funds to cover the conference cost. Sponsorships are available.

The hotel will have a block reserved for the conference

Stay tuned for the full agenda, speaker highlights, and registration details coming soon!

We look forward to seeing you there!
