Resources for Schools

When families send their children with Autism to school, they are ensuring schools will have the resources needed to help keep their loved ones safe. However, most educators are not trained in Autism, nor do most educators know about wandering and the dangers of water for individuals with Autism. Having resources available to educate and prepare for cases of wandering can help schools better provide support(s) for their Autistic students. One resource to learn more about Autism is the “What is Autism?” resource.

Feedback from Schools

At ASGA, having feedback from schools allows us to know how impactful ASGA’s resources are in providing support for students with Autism. Please complete a feedback form if you have utilized information on wandering/elopement, water safety, or other information provided by ASGA.
