Each summer, my adult child with autism attends summer camp. They feel as though wandering is a rare occurrence, so how can I help them understand the severity of the issue?
Safety and prevention measures should always be in place, and an emergency response plan should be readily available. If the camp setting is not secure, or lacks barriers that could keep your child from leaving, other strong measuressuch as one-on-one assignment should be in place. However, anytime there is doubt about the safety of any setting, its best to trust your instincts and opt against the risk.
