Back to School Fundriser

 

As school starts back our advocates are actively brushing up on special education policy both federal ( IDEA) and State of Indiana ( Article 7).  We know that families will be having questions and concerns within our monitoring area and we offer no-cost advocate assistance as they are available.  

Back to school also marks our need to get ready for our last family activities of 2021 along with  our Monthly Family Activities we are working on two more special activities. Bringing back To Cute Too Spoke our sensory friendly halloween activity and for our fourth consecutive year Sensory Santa in early December. These activities are made possible by our community partners and by community members that help with donations.  

This year we are setting a goal of raising $4,000 by the end of november to help ensure we meet expected costs of the activities and to help have a start on our program budget for 2022. This will allow us to hit the ground running with activities and increase our community outreach in 2022. 

Our goal for the August 14ths Monthly Family Activity is to have raised $250. If we can meet this goal Patrick our board president and lead advocate will take a cake to the face at the August Family Activity and  post the video on our facebook page.
