South of the River Resource Fair is opening its doors to families in need of disability services with a special focus on aiding children with various disabilities. Slated for Thursday, Oct. 10 from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m., the event will be held at Lakeville South High School and aims to quickly provide valuable information and connections.
With an intent to effectively support families navigating the complexities of disability services, the event will feature presentations from Arc Minnesota. Attendees can expect to learn about supported decision-making and guardianship during two sessions at 5 p.m. and 6 p.m. The fair promises to be an invaluable resource, especially for those trying to smoothly transition their child from school to adult life.
The range of services to be highlighted at the fair includes support for mental health conditions, as well as physical, intellectual, and learning disabilities. It's an opportunity for parents, guardians, and caregivers to discover local services and tap into community resources. According to details shared by Dakota County, the fair is free of charge, ensuring that financial barriers do not hinder access to these crucial supports.
