The following links are a collection of first responder training from various autism programs and organizations. Young and older adults with autism are many times neglected in favor of early intervention services. It is hoped that these autism educational trainings help first responders understand autism.
*The trainings below are not authored by this site, but the product of other web sites, which is much appreciated. More trainings like the ones contained in these links are sorely needed.
