Why This Training Matters

Every encounter matters.

Individuals with autism may communicate, react, and respond differently during emergency situations. Without appropriate training, these differences can create challenges for both public safety personnel and the individuals they serve.
 
Preston’s Pursuit for Acceptance provides practical, scenario-based training designed to improve communication, enhance safety, and strengthen trust between agencies and the communities they serve.
