“I loved the variety of vendors and the new activities” (2025 attendee)
This community event is being presented by the Institute for Human Development and Care 4 the Caregivers in collaboration with:
-
- Flagstaff Unified School District – Exceptional Student Services
- High Country Adaptive Sports
- Northern Arizona Healthcare’s Children’s Health Center
- Quality Connections
Launched in 2024, the Northern Arizona Disability Resource Fair is a community event focused specifically on resources available locally to the Northern Arizona disability community. The event was developed in response to requests from members of the community who noted that, in Arizona, disability resource fairs have historically been held in the Phoenix area. This made it difficult for many families to attend due to travel. Additionally, Valley-based fairs often feature disability resources that do not offer services in Northern Arizona.
To address this need, a group of Northern Arizona-based disability organizations, led by Care 4 the Caregivers and the Institute for Human Development, created a planning committee. Their goal was to launch the inaugural event with the hope of turning the Northern Arizona Disability Resource Fair into an annual tradition—one that provides the local disability community with the opportunity to find helpful resources and to network with each other.
The event proved to be highly successful in 2024 and then again in 2025:
- Exhibit tables sold out both years
- The Fair drew over 150 attendees across all disabilities and age groups in 2024, and over 200 attendees in 2025.
- The feedback from both attendees and exhibitors was enthusiastic, with comments including “It was awesome. I enjoyed this Fair”, “Welcoming atmosphere; amazing resources; gave me hope”, and “Overall, you all were amazing, and I hope next year we are even 20% bigger.”
Building on this success, we are planning for an even bigger event in 2026:
- Expanded Exhibit Hall, allowing for 20% more exhibitors and sponsors
- Additional fun activities, including face painting
- And collaboration from six disability-related Northern Arizona organizations in planning
Importantly, we are expanding the fair while keeping all the positive, core elements that helped to make it successful in the past: reasonable exhibitor pricing, free admission and parking for the public, and lots of opportunities to have fun and to network.
Subject to availability, Northern Arizona Disability Resource Fair exhibitors, sponsors and participants are able to book rooms at a discounted rate at the Drury Inn which is adjacent to the High Country Conference Center. Book you room using this link.
Since this is subject to availability, we recommend you book early to get the best rates!
