Autism Awareness Month

Since April is Autism Awareness Month, we wanted to share with everyone what we will be doing in recognition for the month of April.

For the next 30 days our members will be wearing these shirts, instead of our normal duty shirts, in a show of unity and support to those with autism. We will also be placing magnets on our vehicles during the month of April for the same reason. Finally, our monthly training we will be focusing on autism awareness and answering calls and how we can better our skills in helping individuals with autism.

Here is a little bit about the Autism Puzzle Ribbon:
The puzzle ribbon was adopted in 1999 as the universal sign of autism awareness. Although this image is a trademark of the Autism Society, the organization has granted use to other non-profit organizations in order to demonstrate unity and advance a universal mission as opposed to any individually held interests or promotion of a single organization.

The Autism Awareness Ribbon — The puzzle pattern reflects the complexity of the autism spectrum. The different colors and shapes represent the diversity of the people and families living with the condition. The brightness of the ribbon signals hope — hope that through increased awareness of autism, and through early intervention and access to appropriate services/supports, people with autism will lead full lives able to interact with the world on the own terms.
