Creating Physically Safe Spaces
November 15, 2023 10:00 am to 11:30 am
In this online workshop, participants will learn how to spot safety hazards and make appropriate changes to keep youth safe.
Registration will open 10/23.
Participants will also understand safety procedures for indoor and outdoor environments, such as fire drills, evacuations, field trips and travel, and inter-agency communication; and gain a better understanding of effective communication and emergency response systems with program stakeholders, including parents, agency headquarters, and if school-based, designated building administrators. Participants will review School Age Child Care (SACC) regulations related to safety and understand what their site's safety plan should include.
This session is part of the Foundational Series for Line Staff. These introductory sessions provide new line staff with the foundational information they need to support the healthy development of children and youth in afterschool programs. Each topic will be offered multiple times. Attendees register for individual sessions.
