- First responder? Let us help you design your awareness patches to ensure all members of the autistic community are included.
- First Responder Groups across the country have been designing awareness patches to help raise money for local non-profits. We have been fortunate over the past few years to have 4 of our local Police Departments choose Community Autism Resources as their non-profit of choice to benefit from their autism awareness patch fundraisers. If you are a First Responder or know a First Responder looking for a worthy cause to support this year with their awareness patches, please consider Community Autism Resources.
