Down for Love Valentine's Day Event

DSNNN and JUSTin HOPE are excited to host our first ever Valentine's Mixer. 

This event is for all adults with developmental disabilities who are looking for new friendships or a romantic relationship. This event will provide a safe space for adults to find love, if they so chose. 

We will have catering from Chili's and mocktails! Get as dressed up as you want! Come in casual, date night attire or formal! Dress however you are the most comfortable. 

Disclaimer to ease the guardians' minds: 

- participants will fill out a survey before the event disclosing if they would like friendships only, or if they are looking for a romantic relationship. 

-staff will be in close watch to ensure all conversations are light and consentual. 

-there will be conversation cards at the tables to encourage appropriate conversations. 

We advise that you talk to your participants about what they hope to gain from this event and let us know! Since we started planning this event, we have had several members express interest in dating and we hope to provide the safe space for them to explore that option.
