The ALEC program, a collaborative effort of the South Norfolk County Arc Family Autism Center and the Norfolk County District Attorney’s Office, provides training to first responders so that they can effectively respond to the needs to children and adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Training is offered to police officers, fire fighters, EMTs, paramedics and hospital emergency room personnel by presenters who are first responders that possess experience communicating with people with ASD in emergency situations.
