ASA Exhibits, Child Care Service, ASA Registration, Bookstore, and the Employment Service will be situated at the Hilton San Francisco. Visit the links above for information on the services that add value to your convention experience!
Attendees coping with illness, meeting fatigue, or stress may use the Comfort Zone. The room is set aside by ASA as a "safe haven" to escape briefly from the noise and bustle of meeting activities. The Comfort Zone will be located at the Hilton San Francisco. In conjunction with the Student Advisory Forum, the ASA has designated a special lounge especially for student attendees to unwind and network. The Student Lounge will be located near the Graduate Resources area in the Grand Ballroom Exhibit Hall at the Hilton San Francisco. Where do you go when you only have an hour to visit exhibits and eat lunch? Cafe ASA offers you convenient cash-and-carry service during the exhibit hours of the convention. Cafe ASA will be located at the Grand Ballroom Exhibit Hall of the Hilton San Francisco. The cafe is convenient to ASA's newest service, the CyberCafe. Visit the cafe to buy coffee, sodas and light snacks as you network with your colleagues. Stop by the CyberCafe to surf the Net, check your e-mail, as well as receive the latest updates to the convention program. The CyberCafe will be located in the Grand Ballroom Exhibit Hall at the Hilton San Francisco. The ASA asks people with disabilities who are planning to attend the convention to identify themselves and to provide information on how ASA can make the convention more accessible for them.
Please check the appropriate box on the Convention Registration and Hotel Reservation forms if you are disabled and would like assistance in facilitating your attendance at the convention. A note outlining your specific needs should accompany Convention Registration and Hotel Reservation forms.
When making a hotel reservation, you may request audio, visual, or mobility assistance. If you want the ASA Executive Office to verify that your accessibility request(s) will be honored, please send a copy of your reservation confirmation with the equipment request noted to: ASA Special Housing, 1307 New York Avenue, NW, Suite 700, Washington, DC 20005-4701; fax 202-638-0882; meetings@asanet.org.
ASA will make every effort to provide assistance for people who use wheelchairs, interpreters for hearing-impaired individuals, and escorts and readers for people with visual impairments if specific requests are provided at the time of pre-registration. During the convention, people with disabilities who desire a place to relax or assistance with wheelchair repairs, readers, escorts, interpreters and so on may also visit the Comfort Zone.
