Water can be a powerful draw for many autistic children—and when someone wanders, every second matters.

If an autistic child or adult is missing, call 911 immediately and search nearby water first—including pools, ponds, lakes, creeks, rivers, and any other bodies of water.

Find resources on National Autism Association's website and share this message. It could help save a life. 💙
