What is a 911READY Bag?

911READY Bags are designed to be used by Fire & Rescue, EMS and Law Enforcement Agencies when they encounter an autistic child or adult during an emergency situation. The contents of these bags were designed to include specific items that may help reduce stress and anxiety of an autistic person. 

*Please note, there is a $40 fee per bag. Selecting “Yes” below does not mean you have to purchase them at this time. Whether you plan to purchase (or seek sponsorship) or would just like more information, please check “yes” and we will contact you to discuss it. The price of the Bags also includes a training session for your station/department/company on how to recognize an autistic individual and how to use the bag contents to aid in your emergency response with them.

RESPONDERS 911READY BAG SUMMARY OF EXPERIENCE

911CARES is a program created for Emergency Responders servicing Downriver* cities and townships to get specific necessities for a child in need in their community. This program is designed to help law enforcement, fire and rescue and emergency medical responders assist children in their community without incurring out of pocket expenses. For example, if you are an officer and recognize a child in need of shoes, a coat or whatever other item you deem a legitimate need, complete the form below and we will make every effort to help fulfill this need. Once fulfilled, the item will be brought to you and you can deliver it to the child, further reinforcing the positive relationships between responders and members of the community. All that we ask is that NO pictures of children are taken. If you would like to take a picture with the item(s) you will deliver and mention that you are working with 911READY to bring positive community changes to post on social media, please feel free to tag us.
