The Autism and Law Enforcement Education Coalition (ALEC), hosted by the Louisiana State Fire Marshal’s Association along with the Louisiana Office of State Fire Marshal, is pleased to offer this training for FREE. The dynamics of the course will offer positive tools to aid first responders with different techniques to address field contact, communication and behavior, sensory issues, de-escalation techniques resulting in arrest as well as restraint and custody issues. In addition, the course will provide information on how first responders can identify an individual with Autism and discuss contrasting situations. The primary objective of the course is to educate first responders when contacting individuals with Autism.
