Field trips are some of the most meaningful moments residents with developmental disabilities get — real community engagement, new experiences, genuine enjoyment. They’re also where planning gaps show up fastest if staff haven’t prepared for them. DCTRC’s Group Living Course #1225: Tips on Organizing Field Trips for Those with Developmental Disability (4 CEUs) gives staff the framework to get it.
The course starts with understanding developmental disabilities as they apply to trip planning, then covers safety protocols for transportation and destinations. It closes with communication strategies for staff coordination and behavioral management techniques that keep outings positive and proactive rather than reactive.
Updated to reflect the November 2025 Consolidated AFC Administrative Rules, this course helps your team turn community outings into genuinely enriching, well-supported experiences — not just a logistical risk to manage.
