Kevin & Avonte's Law

Post Reply New Topic

Most of us are familiar with tragic stories of wandering in autistics, particularly kids. Kevin and Avonte’s Law passed by vote in the U.S. Senate in July. If it passes Congress, the bill would:
• Ensure that grants from the U.S. Department of Justice can be used by state and local law enforcement agencies and nonprofits for education and training programs to proactively prevent and locate missing individuals with autism and other developmental disabilities.
• Make resources available to provide first responders and other community officials with the training necessary to better prevent and respond to these cases.
