frequently asked questions

Will there be translations for the lectures? Expand

TACA understands that families who do not prefer to communicate in English may not be able to take full advantage of the in-person conference. While we deeply respect and value the autism community and the diversity of our community, we do not have the funding or capacity to provide live translation for conference lectures. While there will be no translations live, we are excited to announce that the conference lecture recordings will have closed caption translations in over 30 languages. This will be included for all lecture recordings for the in-person and digital access tickets.
