The Molokai TMC is celebrating its ninth anniversary this year and is an opportunity for families and professionals to learn more about community resources and services available to help children with or at risk of disabilities. The event will focus on transitioning youth and will include conference topics on Guardianship, Transfer of Rights; Post-Secondary Options; Social Security benefits for children with disabilities; and Self-Advocacy Skills.

We would like to thank the Hawaiian Electric Company for their generous donation to support our Traveling Mini-Conference this year.

LDAH is dedicated to identifying and addressing needs in children that may negatively impact their education and life since 1990. Where disabilities are identified, LDAH works with parents and family members to ensure the rights of those children are protected according to law.
