There are many different opportunities to learn more about services, programs, and important topics. Meetings and trainings offered by Harbor Regional Center are at no cost to the participant. All trainings and meetings are presented in English, unless stated otherwise.
Interpretation for any language is available for all Harbor Regional Center training, meetings, and events when requested at least five (5) or more business days before the event or at the time of registration.
New Resources!
Local artists submitted their creative works earlier this year in response to our call for artists. Some of the artwork we received is featured in our new Training and Events mailings! Special thanks to special artists: Abigail A.; Alexander L.; Hannah C.; Sebastian G.; Juan Pablo M.; Margarita S.; and Alana A.!
We appreciate everyone who took the time to submit your artwork. There was so much creativity in each piece shared with us and we look forward to creating more opportunities to showcase the talent of our community.
If you are an individual or family served by Harbor Regional Center, keep an eye out for two new resources that will make its way to your mailbox in July! Don’t worry if it got lost in the mail, stop by our Family Resource Center to pick one up or let your service coordinator know.
Postcard
This postcard includes a QR Code that makes it quick and easy for you to scan and view our Special Training and Events calendar with your mobile device or tablet anytime! Keep it handy and enjoy the artwork by hanging it on your fridge or desk.
List
This 4-fold list provides you with an overview of the upcoming events we have to offer for the rest of the year. Events are listed by age group and you will have important dates, times, and contacts available.
