Autism New Jersey is fortunate to have enjoyed a collaborative partnership with New Jersey Attorney General Matt Platkin and First Assistant Lyndsay Ruotolo in our efforts at improving safety considerations for persons with autism/IDD. We have received unwavering support from the Attorney General for our many initiatives designed to address the needs of the autism community. This support is highlighted in General Platkin’s recent recorded remarks below.
The Law Enforcement Initiative has also received steadfast support from the County Prosecutors’ Association of New Jersey in its efforts at increasing statewide adoption of autism-friendly practices to ensure safe and positive interactions between law enforcement, the autism community and their families. Through the power of connection, we have established incredible working relationships with law enforcement leadership throughout the state that will benefit the very community we endeavor to support.
