Did you know that 1 in 5 young autistic people will interact with police officers before the age of 21? While these interactions cover only a small portion of a person’s rights, many autistic individuals and their families are unaware of what civil rights and entitlement to support and accommodations people with disabilities have when interacting within the legal system, education, or the community at large. This webinar will dive deeper into an autistic person’s various rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), The Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) – and how to enforce them to ensure full inclusion, fair treatment, and participation in our communities.
