Most of the time, when Law Enforcement responds to a call involving someone with ASD, it is for negative reasons. The uniform can become associated with crisis circumstances or fear, rather than help and safety. This event allows for positive and enjoyable interactions between families, individuals with ASD and members of Law Enforcement.A day to provide one location highlighting community resources available to families. Often, parents and caregivers are unsure who to contact regarding the individual needs of their loved one with ASD.A day for the ASD community to have judgment-free fun and to experience activities those on the spectrum might not try at a general event.At our 2025 event, we had over 1000 participants and 70 + resource vendors!Many thanks to our incredibly generous sponsors listed below!
