In this active, upbeat session, teens practice using "People Safety" skill
to prevent, manage, or leave potentially unsafe situations with people.
"People Safety" skills help prevent violence and improve communication
at home, at school, out in the world, online... everywhere, with everyone.
This session will focus on the safety needs of teens with developmental
disabilities who will learn together with the parents or other
adult allies who are helping them learn skills for increasing independence. Event Flyer / Spanish Flyer / Chinese Flyer |
