About AK Connect

For educators, parents and
people with disabilities

In addition to being a statewide disability information newsletter, each issue includes a list of educational opportunities, activities and supports for parents, educators and people with disabilities specific to a region of Alaska. The online regional event calendars (use this map) provide a description of each activity with details on how to participate. Calendars are regularly updated; events marked with a red star are new, a blue star means the event was recently updated. Other calendar features include viewing it in different formats and searching for events.

 

Have your own event for the calendar or article for the newsletter?
