Our Offerings
Building Resilient Communities, Together.
Memento Mei moves beyond one-size-fits-all emergency preparedness. We provide the tools, training, and strategies to make safety and resilience accessible to everyone, with a focus on individuals with disabilities and diverse needs.
We offer 1:1 person-centered planning facilitation for personal plan development.
The "Adaptive Plan" Deep Dive
Ideal for: Individuals or families who want a completely customized emergency plan.
What it includes:
Pre-consultation intake form (based on your P-CEP workbooks) to identify needs, goals, and challenges.
90-minute 1:1 session (virtual) to build a personalized Adaptive Emergency Plan.
A customized "Adaptive Core" checklist for their go-bag.
One 30-minute follow-up session to review and refine the plan.
A digital copy of their completed plan and resource guide.
Adaptive Emergency Exercises
We go beyond ADA compliance—because real accessibility starts where regulations end. Our exercises reveal what compliance checkboxes can't: the lived reality of emergencies when you communicate, move, or process differently.
Traditional emergency practices assume everyone can hear sirens, follow verbal commands, or process chaos the same way.
Or place heavy reliance on caregivers who may be injured or unfamiliar with how to provide support during emergencies.
Or to rely on first responders and good Samaritans who may not have the appropriate tools to help.
Our adaptive exercises are co-designed with disabled self-advocates and emergency response specialists to:
Practice evacuations that honor diverse mobility and sensory needs (e.g., tactile ASL guides for DeafBlind participants).
Test communication tools in realistic scenarios (think: smoky rooms, power outages, fast evacuations that may cause us to forget our tools on the way to evacuate).
Pressure-test systems with first responders to expose gaps before disasters strike.
The Community Resilience Workshop Series
This is the heart of our work. A transformative, eight-part series designed to deconstruct the barriers in mainstream emergency preparedness. Participants leave with personalized plans, practical skills and tools, and a vital support network.
Key Features of the Series:
Hybrid Accessibility: Attend in-person for a hands-on experience or virtually from anywhere.
Inclusive by Design: Every workshop integrates live captioning (CART), ASL interpretation upon request, and adaptable materials.
Expert-Led, Community-Centered: Developed and facilitated by experts in inclusive preparedness, with content shaped by community input.
Tangible Deliverables: Leave each session with a concrete tool—from a personalized crisis plan to a started emergency kit.
Topics we’ll cover: Building & Personalizing your emergency plan, building an adaptive emergency kit, digital resilience, building community safety plans, Community-led topic like how to use a fire extinguisher, calling 911, and more!
