NAFAPA’s biannual conference is an important venue to share up-to-date research and emerging trends in adapted physical activity. It offers participants opportunities for dialogue, development of collaborative projects, and feedback. Both formally, through the delivery of papers and poster-session presentations, and informally through one-on-one or small group conversations, a remarkable amount of professional support and advice is shared. The conference allows the opportunity to take advantage of the expertise of the people who make up NAFAPA and bring new people into the organization. It is also an important time of the year when the Board and the general membership can meet and vote on important issues. 

​

NAFAPA 2024 will be held in Ithaca, New York. A location that offers an enchanting backdrop for conference attendees, blending natural beauty with intellectual vibrancy. Nestled in the heart of the Finger Lakes region, this small yet spirited city is renowned for its stunning gorges and waterfalls, which provide a picturesque setting for relaxation and exploration. Home to prestigious Cornell University and Ithaca College, and a short drive to SUNY Cortland, Ithaca boasts a lively, eclectic atmosphere enriched by a thriving academic community. The downtown area, centered around The Commons, is a charming pedestrian mall filled with unique shops, restaurants, and galleries that reflect the town's creative and cultural diversity. Whether you're looking for inspiring natural scenery, engaging intellectual opportunities, or a taste of local culture and cuisine, Ithaca is a destination that truly has something for everyone.
