Promoting Positive Interaction with Law Enforcement: A Panel Discussion
At Pathfinders for Autism, we have been training law enforcement on how to best interact with individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities since 2012. As a part of PFA’s continuing commitment to promoting positive relationships between those with disabilities and the law enforcement community, we feel there is a need for a holistic approach to this critical conversation. Please join our moderator, former police officer and 105.7 The Fan morning show host, Rob Long, as he and a panel of law enforcement officers discuss the rules that should be followed to help ensure everyone’s safety. The panel will also discuss what caregivers can do to help make it a better interaction for all involved.
The webinar is free to attend, but registration is required. Prior to the webinar, a Zoom link will be sent to you.
If you have questions for the panel, please submit them to smclaughlin@pfamd.org by October 19.
