🚨 25 Emergency Preparedness Kits for Neurodivergent Families! 💙

​

Emergencies can be overwhelming for any family—but for families of autistic and neurodivergent children, having the right supplies and a plan can make a BIG difference.

​

EmpowerED Autism is giving away 25 emergency preparedness kits to help families take the first steps toward being prepared. 🎒


These kits include essential preparedness items based on recommendations from Ready.gov, including:

🔦 Flashlight
📻 Solar/hand-crank emergency radio
🔋 Battery backup/power bank
🗺️ Maps
📢 Emergency signaling supplies
🩹 First-aid and preparedness essentials
…and more!

​

💙 If your family could benefit from an emergency preparedness kit, please take a few minutes to complete our registration form below.


We are giving away 25 kits, so please register and share this post with other families, caregivers, schools, therapists, and community organizations who may know a family who could benefit.

​

🎥 Kai has a special message about the emergency kits in the video above!

​

Preparedness isn’t about being afraid of what might happen. It’s about making sure our families have the tools and resources they need when emergencies happen.

​

25 kits. 25 families. One more step toward being prepared. 💙
