Autism Awareness for Emergency Responders



We have given the opportunity to hear and learned about the Autism Awareness for Emergency Responders.

A first responder is seven times more likely to come in contact with an individual with autism than the average person.

When a disaster strikes at home the most affected were those who are with a person with disability.

What is Autism?

-Early development disorder

-6 months to 3 years old

-Neuro-Developmental Disorder

-A spectrum conditions

-1 in 68 (4 x boys)
