For the second year in a row, Portland Public Schools Superintendent Guadalupe Guerrero will give the welcome address at the All Born (in) Cross-disability Best Practices Educational Inclusion Conference when the event’s 14^th staging is held on Saturday, April 6 at the Holiday Inn Portland Airport.
