Autism Safety Program
Autism Safety Program is a project in partnership with the community and Summit County Sheriff's Office. This online program promotes communication and gives police quick access to important information about a person who displays a tendency to wander; such as Autism, Dementia or other disability with similar tendencies. This program provides information that is critical for law enforcement prior to an officer's arrival at a scene and/or prior to contacting an individual with disabilities. Rapid access to information such as their name, birthday, physical description, emergency contact information, known triggers and behaviors, etc. will help Officers during their initial response. Please share all information you feel comfortable providing. This form should be filled out yearly to ensure accurate information is available for first responders. You will receive a notification at the end of each year to refresh your information.
