Maryland Autism Coalition Wandering and Elopement Resources

 

49% of children with autism wander or elope (an act or instance of leaving, often from a safe area or safe premises). If you’re caring for someone who elopes, then you know how terrifying and exhausting it can be trying to track their every movement. Here are some resources and strategies that can help.
