Bit of Grace

Our vision is to ensure that everyone is able to communicate their needs in a time of crisis.  By providing public safety agencies with proven tools to help de-escalate stressful situations and providing alternative methods of communication, we are bridging the gap to bring our community together.  Our dream is to educate and provide resources to assist with encounters to make them a more positive experience for everyone involved. 

In collaboration with various therapists and input from those with disabilities, we have selected various communication and sensory tools to help those during a crisis or emergency situation.  Our kits help the adult or child with sensory regulation and provide ample sources for communication to allow for self-advocacy in getting the person’s needs met.  It is a widely accepted belief in the disability world that behind every behavior is an unmet need.  Meaning once the need is identified and met, the behavior no longer serves its original purpose.

Often families or those with disabilities will find themselves isolating from their communities.  This is often due to stigma or preconceived notions.  We hope these kits break through all barriers to allow everyone to be as active and a part of their community as they desire.
