Caring for someone with a disability comes with unique challenges and responsibilities — and your role as a caregiver is invaluable. We invite you to join us for an informative and supportive workshop. We will discuss:
- Emergency Preparedness (e.g. fire, flood, power outage)
- Building Safety Supports into a IEP/504 Plan
- Home Security (smart devices, alert systems)
- Emergency Contact Planning & Communication Tools
- De-escalation and Self-Advocacy in Public Settings
- Building a Safety Circle (trusted allies, family, support workers)
Whether you’re a parent, sibling, spouse, or other caregiver, your presence and perspective matter. Let’s come together to learn, support one another, and build a stronger safety net for those we care for. If you are unable to attend the presentation, free Safety Packets will be available at our office Monday-Thursday from 10am – 1pm. Please email admin@arcwhatcom to set up a time if those hours do not work for you.
