SUMMARY:Arlington Community Safety Partnership Day
DESCRIPTION:  \nJoin Arlington first responders\, emergency services\, 911 professionals\, The Arc of Northern Virginia\, and OSG for a free\, interactive day focused on safety\, preparedness\, and positive first responder interactions. \nThis event is designed to help individuals of all abilities feel more confident and prepared during emergencies.
