Practical Safety Measures for Comfortable Off‑Site Visits

Community Education Specialist Andie and Dr. Emily Tronetti of the Institute for Human Education discuss agency-centered sanctuary education and its connection to off-site programming. Andie and Emily explore the crucial considerations sanctuaries should make before planning and facilitating any off-site educational program with residents. They also discuss the essential factors that sanctuary educators must consider before and during the event to ensure resident safety and support their agency off-site at all times. Finally, they highlight some of the ways sanctuary educators can provide engaging and enriching educational opportunities at off-site outreach events without including the residents’ physical presence. ---
