"Empowering Accessibility, Enhancing Experience."
Accessibility at Conference
- Ensure you have completed your Conference Accommodation Form in Pheedloop.
- Session handouts will be available in Pheedloop ahead of the conference for you to print and bring with you.
- If you need accessible lodging, please work through the hotel directly.
- Presenters will be using microphones in all educational sessions.
- To ensure your seating preference in the keynotes and educational sessions, please let the room host/moderator know that you need accessible seating and where you would like to sit. They will move chairs for you. (note, seating is on a first-come, first-served basis)

Food Modifications
MRPA strives to create a safe and inclusive conference for all attendees. In order for us to better accommodate everyone, we include a question about food allergies, religious and/or dietary preferences in our registration process for attendees, speakers and exhibitors. The answers help guide our selected food options.
NRPA's Equity Language Guide
The NRPA Equity Language Guide is a resource to help park and recreation professionals develop a common language around diversity, equity and inclusion. It includes content from leading language guides, as well as numerous organizations, associations, researchers and more who are at the forefront of bridging gaps in equity through language.
