FAMILIES: If you have a loved one with special needs, including autism, know this: You are not alone.
This is the third in a series of social media PSA’s designed to give you a little more information on resources and programs that are offered by Hoover and other various local organizations. Please take advantage of these programs!
• Project Lifesaver https://projectlifesaver.org/
From their website: “Project Lifesaver is the premier search and rescue program operated internationally by public safety agencies, and is strategically designed for “at risk” individuals who are prone to the life threatening behavior of wandering. The primary mission of Project Lifesaver is to provide timely response to save lives and reduce potential injury for adults and children with the propensity to wander due to a cognitive condition.” Contact your local sheriff’s department for more information.
