So I have been running an autism awareness group and since summer is here and cammping is in full swing i was wondering what the police force and rescue teams had going for those with disabilities.  This is what I found out...Nothing.  They don't have training or any experience for that matter.  It blew my mind.  We hear about more kids getting lost every year more and more with autism.  So I learned that i might be educating the police force, search and rescue teams, fire departments, and emts about autism in my area.  My concern for all parents and families is your police force aware of the needs our children have and if not can you help them become educated?
