Register NOW for our FREE Workshop about Future Planning - LIMITED SPOTS AVAILABLE
FINAL GROUP THREE - April - June 2024 - Final spots left - REGISTER NOW!
The wait is over! We are excited to announce our FREE intensive Safe & Secure Workshop at PLAN Calgary!
We understand that many families do not have the financial resources to support the future planning process for your loved one with a disability. We are looking for 30 families who identify as low-income and are ready to commit and learn everything you need to know about planning for the future, while creating a natural support network around your loved one.
PLAN helps families answer the question: “Who will support your loved one with a disability when you cannot?” We cover five key areas:
• Reviewing options to ensure financial stability for the future
• Facilitating connections that foster love and belonging
• Facilitating opportunities to contribute unique gifts in community
• Exploring mechanisms to ensure empowered and respected decision making
• Exploring and supporting decisions around housing
We have the opportunity for you to participate in three group learning sessions with guest speakers in their areas of expertise of legal, financial, housing and building a natural support network. You will then have access to a Family & Community Engagement Coordinator during those three months, to help you get your planning started and on the move with support and resources.
If you have the desire and commitment to build a safe and secure future for your relative, then this is for you. We want to empower you with information so that you can execute informed decision making and be a strong advocate for your loved one. Our goal is to promote strong family leadership, secure the future, and prevent crisis in our disability community here in YYC.
To apply & register, please email membership@plancalgary.ca.
