Hey Officer Blakely! Great to see you again!
You're coming to the Safe Encounters Brunch aren't you?
Safe Encounters Brunch
Join us Saturday, October 11, 2025 for an elegant brunch debuting the culinary stylings of Thomas Goines, Jr. Enjoy mouth watering cuisine as you spend a few minutes witnessing the beautiful result of ARISE Educational Services by interacting, learning and providing opportunities to existing and prospective clients.
How will the Safe Encounters Brunch provide support?
Silent disabilities need a voice. Safe Encounters Training provides a voice for the individual. Awareness provides a voice for the community. Interaction provides a voice for the mission of Safe Encounters.
So often the voice for support has no idea what to say. Come and enjoy a delicious brunch, while you meet SAFE ENCOUNTERS clients, their families, first responder participants and program founders.
Ticket proceeds cover the cost of brunch and the cost to equip local police departments with Sensory Kits and to fund Blue Envelope Program Launch.
Discover your voice confidently in how you can make a difference for a friend, family member or even a stranger.
