Sensitivity Awareness Workshop

Time:

9:00 AM to 12:00 PM

Location:

SWFLN

The purpose of the Sensitivity Awareness Workshop is to educate individuals about people who have physical, mental or learning disabilities through a hands-on, interactive program. 

“The uniqueness and true value of the Sensitivity Awareness Workshop is the experience a typical individual gains from learning first-hand how it feels to live as a person dealing with a disability. We provide the environment to place on a disability and actually touch, feel, hear, and 'walk-in-the-shoes' of someone diagnosed with that special need.” - Lisa Cronin Miller. 

This workshop offers organizations and libraries a comprehensive program that fosters understanding, provides guidance and a facilitates a sincere sense of compassion and empathy towards those with disabilities.
