ACSA’s Council of Student Services and Special Education Leaders presents this world-class learning event each year, featuring dynamic workshops, informative keynotes and opportunities for skill development and networking.

Over 2.5 days, you’ll refresh your practice with inspiring speakers, in-depth presentations, and interactive panel discussions. Designed for both new and seasoned educators, this event spotlights current trends and best practices in student services and special education.

Dynamic Workshops

Experience breakout sessions led by trailblazing experts, who offer real-world practices, insights, and solutions.

Lasting Connections

These connections go beyond business cards. They’re the spark for lasting partnerships and opportunities.

Inspiring Keynotes

Be moved, challenged, and inspired by powerful stories and bold perspectives that reignite your commitment to leading with impact.

Call for Presenters

We invite you to submit a proposal to present at an upcoming conference, offering your expertise and building your professional portfolio.

Sponsors & Exhibitors

The drive to be in touch with educators and to learn how to meet their evolving needs is even greater now than ever before. Fill out the interest form to receive updates on sponsor and exhibitor opportunities.

It’s the “go-to” conference for student services personnel. Not only do you get great content from experts and colleagues, but you also get to connect with your peers and … hopefully get re-energized in mind and spirit.

Ginese Quann, Executive Director, Charter SELPA, El Dorado County Office of Education

The Every Child Counts Symposium has a really comprehensive list of sessions that cover everything from IEPs, 504s, inclusion and supporting staff. I’m always taking resources back to my staff and colleagues.
It’s a conference our SELPA values.
