With more than thirty years of lived caregiving experience, Lola brings a perspective shaped by real life. As a mother of two children with autism and the sister of an intellectually disabled man with autism, she understands what caregivers navigate every day.
A TEDx speaker and attorney leading ADA legal strategy at a global banking institution, Lola also shares her voice through her podcast and memoir, Unapologetically Whole, exploring identity, healing, and balancing ambition with caregiving.
Caregiving can feel isolating. The National Caregivers Conference is built to change that.

We know what connection can do. Now we’re looking for the people ready to create it.
Our breakout session tracks for NCC 2026 are here.
As we continue to build this year’s National Caregivers Conference, we’re inviting speakers to align their proposals with the areas that matter most to caregivers today.
We’re looking for thoughtful, solution-driven sessions that educate, inspire, and support caregivers and those who walk alongside them.
If you have insight, experience, or approaches that help caregivers feel more supported, more informed, or less alone, we want to hear from you.
Caregiving can feel isolating. The National Caregivers Conference (NCC) is built to change that. This year’s theme, Connected in Caregiving, focuses on strengthening the support systems caregivers rely on every day. Your voice can help shape what that looks like.
Submit your proposal for in-person or virtual breakout sessions by May 31st at nationalcaregiversconference.org. Link in bio.
