Search and Rescue for Autism, We are a national program by @AutismCanada Prevention, pre-planning, resources, tool kits, technical training and more.
#SARAutism
It is common for SAR volunteers to feel distress when searches end without success or with recovery of a deceased subject, or even when a successful search involves highly emotional triggers. Call the CISM program 1-800-663-3456 for team or individual debriefs. #CISMSaturday

@AutismCanada It's also important to realize that verbalizations are just one method of communication! Ask their preferred communication method. Always be respectful!
Every teacher I ever had told me I had such great potential that I wasn’t reaching.
So much shame from ADHD comes from falling short of this supposed potential, accepting the blame, and trying to fix it through some magic act of “trying harder” which never works.
