Autism First Responder Training Video
After a generous donor offered to support an Autism training video for first responders, the Autism Society of Central Texas worked with Red Media Group, Chester Security, parents, and individuals with Autism to create a free training video for first responders. The video is 26 minutes long and includes information about Autism to educate and inform various first responder groups who may encounter individuals with Autism in their community. Important: This video was created in 2016. The Autism prevalence rate and some data is no longer accurate, however, much of the content is still a valuable learning tool. Since creating the video, our organization became the Autism Society of Texas.
Se recomienda mostrar este vídeo y luego utilizar el kit de herramientas de seguridad Big Red de la Asociación Nacional de Autismo (NAA) para educar aún más a los primeros respondedores sobre el autismo. Está disponible como descarga gratuita aquí.
