2017 ASHA CONVENTION

General Information
Lost and Found

Parking

ASHA is not responsible for items lost
during the Convention or returning
found items to attendees. Found items
brought to an Information Booth will
be held at that booth for the remainder
of the day; at the end of the day, the
items will be brought to the ASHA
Convention staff office.

There are several parking options-
both garages and lots-conveniently
located within blocks of the Los
Angeles Convention Center. Accepted
methods of payment are cash and all
major credit cards (Visa, MasterCard,
American Express, and Discover). View
a map of the parking areas around the
Convention Center at
www.lacclink.com/attendees/parking.

All unclaimed items will be turned over
to the Los Angeles Convention Center
when the Convention ends on Saturday.
It is the responsibility of attendees to
follow up with the Convention Center
to retrieve lost items. To inquire about a
lost item after the ASHA Convention
has concluded, contact Guest Services at
213-765-4225.

Lounges
A number of designated lounge spaces
for groups to gather and rest in between
sessions are located throughout the
Convention Center. These spaces are
available for you to recharge and connect
with colleagues and friends who share
similar interests. See page 16 for more
details.

Personal Security and
Responsibility
For your safety and security, Los
Angeles Convention Center
personnel are trained in disaster
preparedness and emergency response
procedures should anything arise.
For any emergencies, building security
can be reached on any house phone by
dialing ext. 3000. You can also contact
the Convention Center's 24-hour
Security team, for any reason, from
any telephone at 213-765-4605. Due
to the size of the Convention Center,
we discourage dialing 911 directly to
ensure that our first responders are
given detailed and accurate location
information.
Your safety outside the Convention
Center is also important, so please
follow these general tips during your
stay in Los Angeles:

Answer your hotel room door only
when you can identify the person
knocking.

Do not wear your meeting badge
outside Convention functions or on

the Convention Center or your
hotel.
Always let someone know where you
are going when you leave the hotel
or Convention Center.
