New Website Coming Soon

Thanks for visiting! You might have noticed that we haven't updated this website/blog with recent trainings lately. That's because we are in the process of designing a new and much better site! It will include a lot more features and information on all of the training programs offered, as well as a calendar of events, video clips, an interactive quiz, and much more.

In the past several months, we've also trained many more first responding departments through on-site visits and through local and statewide conferences. Many thanks to those who have hosted Autism ALERT, and to the families who have shared their experiences with their first responders as well.

Upcoming Autism Training: Southern Wisconsin / Northern Illinois

Don't miss the upcoming autism training for first responders at Lake Geneva High School in Lake Geneva, WI, on Saturday, September 19th. Generously sponsored by the Town of Linn and the Mercy Health System, this training promises to be educational for all! Time: 8:30am-noon.

Midwest Police and Security Expo

It was great to see police and security personnel from across the midwest at the conference and expo. Several people came up to me afterwards, telling their own stories from experiences in the field. Thanks to everyone who took the time to attend!

National Night Out 2009: Tuesday, August 4th, 2009

Don't miss National Night Out 2009! It's a great opportunity to meet your first responders! It happens across the US on the first Tuesday of August every year! Google your county and "national night out" to see where an event is near you! It's great for kids and adults of all ages!

This event will give you and your family a chance to meet police, fire, and EMS personnel as well as take a look at a lot of neat emergency vehicles! You might also get to meet some police dogs and horses.

If you have a disabled child, this would be a great event to familiarize them with emergency staff and vehicles. It would also be an excellent opportunity to speak with the first responders and let them know about any special needs your family may have.
