2015 “Together Against Bullying”-Unity Day event on October 21 hosted by ARSILC

 

The ARSILC  is pleased to announce that we are hosting the 2015 “Together Against Bullying”-Unity Day event on October 21 at the State Capitol, 2^nd floor Rotunda from 10 a.m. until 12 p.m. You are receiving this email as special guest of the ARSILC as a provider to individuals with disabilities.  All of our events are centered around promoting equal access and inclusion for individuals with disabilities to be productive and to live as independently as  any other citizen in our state.  This event is a national initiative that takes place every year in October presented in part by Pacer.  For more information visit   www.pacer.org/bullying.  This year,  the SILC is promoting this initiative as an extension of Disability Awareness month and the ADA 25 celebration!

 

A few things below for you  to consider:

 

·        Free Lunch will be served but you must RSVP your group to have lunch secured.  Any dietary restrictions will need to be stated when registering.  Example: vegetarian, gluten free, etc. 

 

·        We will again provide reserved parking for those that will bring consumers in vans.  The public service announcement will go out next week, however as our special guest, you are getting the notice before anyone else.

 

·        Once you RSVP your group, different providers will be contacted so that we can secure participants to help in the areas of the program.

 

·        Everyone is asked to wear orange on that day and show the unity as we stand up against bullying.

 

·        If you have a unique idea that can be added to the program, send it our way.

 

 

Thank you again for your continued support.  All RSVP’s can be sent to Lclarkarilc@att.net or call the SILC office at 501-372-0607.   Once we receive your RSVP, you will receive additional information in regards to the program for that day.

We are looking forward to another successful event with you included!

 

Unite against Bullying!!
