Seeking Sponsors
The IDD Council is seeking Sponsors and a volunteer grant writer to assist in acquiring funding needed for future Be Safe Training.

 

The Be Safe Interactive Movie Screening is a unique safety event that brings together local police and residents with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (I/DD) and similar disabilities. The Be Safe screening helps individuals with ASD and IDD learn to interact safely with police, and local police who participate have the opportunity to get to know area residents with exceptional needs. 

We are also taking dedicated donations and looking for Corporate Sponsors to support each Be Safe Interactive Screening event. Contact us for more information.
