FAQs

1. Registration process! 

Club uses EventBrite to simplify the registration and payment process. All those attending must pay in advance unless a different arrangement applies for which an invoice will be submitted to the appropriate entity (e.g. FMS funding, Self-Determination funding, etc - See Below). Payments are not accepted at the door.

You can find links to our EventBrite events on the homepage calendar of events

2. SDRC Social Rec FMS Funding of Events

For consumers who are not in the self-determination program, the consumer's IPP team may approve funding for Club individually or as a series on a case-by-case basis under the "CIS FMS social rec option" up to 6 months at a time. For example, some consumers have asked for approval of 2 events per month for a 6 month period so that they do not have to seek approval event to event. [Beacons is in the process of developing more social recreational opportunities other than weekend Clubs as well!]

Steps For Self Determination Clients:

  • Consumer Requests approval: Consumer contacts their special Self Determination SDRC service coordinator to request Social Recreational funding (or possibly through Community Integration funding) of a Club event or for a series Club events over a period not to exceed 6 months. Current rate:  $52/event at twice a month for 6 months = $624 (includes processing fees)

  • Service Coordinator requests approval: Once the service coordinator obtains funding approval, and the consumer's FMS has received an approved and revised spending plan (as needed), the consumer/family will be notified.

  • Consumer/Family next steps: Upon approval, the consumer/family should contact us at finance@beaconsnorthcounty.com for further instructions  and a Promo Code to use when registering for each Club event.  Club Beacons will need the consumer's name and contact information, their UCI#, the FMS contact information, Service Code and any other instructions from the FMS to submit payment.
     

Steps For Traditional SDRC Clients:

  • Consumer Requests approval: Consumer contacts their SDRC service coordinator to request SDRC funding of a Club event or for a series Club events over a period not to exceed 6 months. Current rate:  $52/event at twice a month for 6 months = $624 (includes processing fees)

  • Service Coordinator requests approval: Once the service coordinator obtains funding approval, the SDRC will notify Beacons and CIS (as the FMS) to complete the needed paperwork for payment. 

  • Consumer/Family next steps: Upon approval, the consumer/family should contact us at finance@beaconsnorthcounty.com for further instructions  and a Promo Code to use when registering for each Club event.  Club Beacons will need the consumer's name and contact information, their UCI#, the FMS contact information, Service Code and any other instructions from the FMS to submit payment.

How does it work?
On
ce the paperwork is approved and processed, the guest will be given an individualized code to use to sign up through EventBrite and will no longer need to pay out-of-pocket to sign up for the SDRC approved events. After entering the code, please hit apply for the code to be entered. After a consumer has attended an event, Beacons will invoice CIS or the SDP FMS for payment.

Please note: In the event that CIS or the FMS does not pay in a timely manner, the consumer/family will be responsible for private payment.

FAQs: Sign-ups, Waitlists & General Information

Sign-up required through EventBright - No Drop-ins! 
Beacons will no longer take payment at the event so all payments and form completion must be done ahead of time! 

Cost & Payment

All registrations must be done via EventBrite. Note that payments for Club events may be eligible for reimbursement from the San Diego Regional Center as a "social recreational" activity. Please contact your SDRC service coordinator to learn more!

What if an event is full? 

If an event is full, EventBrite will automatically add you to the waitlist and we will try to accommodate you as best we can! Thank you!

 

Going with a friend? Important!

If going to Club with a friend, please make sure your friend has signed-up so that the friend is not turned away. [If attending with a personal care attendant, please notify Beacons in advance: Club@BeaconsNorthCounty.com]

First timers

The first time someone attends, a member of the participant's "Circle of Trust" (e.g. parent, aide, driver, etc.) will be asked to stay onsite for up to an hour to make sure the participant is comfortable, sufficiently supported and successful at the Club event without the need for additional assistance. If a participant needs more assistance to be successful, the participant may attend with their own personal support  (e.g. a personal care attendant) for no additional charge.

Facilitation Ratio (Approximately 5:1)

Club Beacons is designed to facilitate and introduce social activities for persons with mild/moderate intellectual disabilities who can participate with staffing ratios of 5:1 or larger.

 

Individuals who require smaller ratio support, and/or who have medical or other issues that need a smaller ratio or ratio of 1:1 to monitor or assist the participant may not be dropped off without a personal care attendant/respite worker/caregiver. Beacons does not provide medical, behavioral or other support other than the provision of facilitated social recreational activities.

Maladaptive Behaviors:

Beacons reserves the right to refuse entry to individuals who have shown or have a history of maladaptive behaviors (elopement, disruptive or aggressive behaviors, self injurious behaviors, behaviors that are likely to injure others) at Club Beacons, outside of Club or who have been convicted of criminal behavior. Any questions, please contact Club directly.

 

If a person intentionally causes injury to self or others or property, or exhibits behaviors which are likely to injure self or others or property, the person will need to be picked up and removed from the premises.
