About the Workshop

This half-day interactive workshop is for parents and family members. Families know that people with intellectual disabilities are vulnerable. Abuse happens but we can prevent it. The Ring of Safety is a tool and outline for the skills we can teach our family members to help keep them safe and encourage them to live their best life. Dave brings this topic to life in an engaging and safe way. You will leave with tools, information and confidence to tackle this topic.
