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)

Hello Maeann,
This is important information especially as ASD and other disorders in that spectrum are so little understood. Good on you for sharing and caring, and for your growing impact:)
Hi Nini, I agree.. I hope more education can be taught about how we can respond and support with ASD.
