This one-day, 4-hour program has been designed by Tamika Lecheé Morales, President and Founder of The Autism Hero Project, to equip first responders with the foundational knowledge and real-world skills needed to recognize, communicate with, and safely support individuals on the autism spectrum. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of autism and how sensory sensitivities, communication differences, and behavioral responses can influence encounters in the field.
