AHCS Early Intervention and Support Coordination teamed up to celebrate April as Autism Awareness Month. Together, they were able to create 18 Autism bags to be given out to local organizations and first responders in the Alleghany Highlands that are often first on the scene, which could help give some comfort to individuals of all ages. The bags included sensory items, communication supports, and a guide for first responders on how to best interact with individuals.
Pictured are Rachel Meyers, Supervisor for Infant and Toddler Connection of the Alleghany Highlands (AHCS); Kayla Douglas, Support Coordination Supervisor(AHCS); and Brittany Stevens, Safe Homes Executive Director.
