Autism+

Create a safe and accessible environment within your organization. The Autism+ Program, sponsored by the NM Department of Health, educates business owners and staff on how to make a safe, inclusive space for those with disabilities such as ASD. We give staff the knowledge, strategies and guidance to support individuals with different abilities.

Our trainings cover ASD acceptance education. We offer environment specific recommendations to accommodate individuals with various supports and needs. All of our trainings are individually designed to meet your organization’s unique needs.

If you would like Autism+ training at your organization, please email CDD-NMAutismPlus@salud.unm.edu or call 505-272-1852.
