The conference is organized into nine main subject tracks to help participants find areas of interest. During the proposal submission process, each proposal submitter selected one category to best describe their session. AATA uses these categories for the final Program Guide. 

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI)

Sessions within this category, grounded in the DEI activist movement, explore studies in art therapy assessments, current research, and theoretical models. The primary focus is on nurturing diversity, advancing equity, and ensuring inclusion within the art therapy domain. This commitment extends to addressing social inequities and advocating for systematic change within the field. Notably, discussions may illuminate strategies to address oppression and confront social justice issues, particularly tailored to the needs of specific populations.
