The Northeast LEND Consortium first met as the New England Regional LENDs (MA, NH, VT) at the AUCD Annual Meeting in 2003 for the purpose of identifying regional issues and opportunities for collaboration. In 2005 the group expanded it’s reach to include LEND programs in New York. Over the past 8 years the Consortium has hosted interactive video conferences and two-day summer institutes across the region for LEND trainees and faculty. The Northeast Consortium continues to meet twice a year to plan regional activities and in 2010 began hosting an annual Trainee Networking Event during the Disability Policy Seminar.
