Disability pop up
Support for caregivers of children with disabilities and special healthcare needs (ages 0-18)

Join us for the Spokane Disability Collaborative monthly Disability Pop-Up, a welcoming space for families, caregivers, and community professionals to come together to share support and resources.
These events are designed to make it easier for parents of children with disabilities to connect with people who understand their experience and can offer practical guidance.
Whether you’re seeking help with school services, early intervention, transition planning, or simply want to connect with others who get it, each Pop-Up offers a caring environment where you can ask questions, explore options, and find the next steps that fit your family.
Areas of Support:
Guidance
Check the status of your DDCS, formerly DDA, application, or connect with community advocates for help problem-solving and navigating resources.
SERVICES
Link with local services and supports for disability, school intervention, autism, transition to adulthood, and parent and caregiver needs.
Navigation
Receive personalized assistance to find and access the programs and supports that fit your family’s situation.
Accessibility
Translation support is available to help you fully participate. Please bring headphones compatible with your phone.
