At its upcoming Autism Investment Conference, Autism Speaks will showcase a number of innovative products designed to prevent and respond effectively to wandering. The conference will take place March 4 and 5, in San Francisco. At a special session on wandering technology, product developers will share progress and challenges and meet with potential investors interested in delivering the most effective products to the autism community.
Nearly half of individuals with autism are prone to wandering, or “elopement,” and its related dangers place tremendous stress on families. Preventing wandering requires a multi-faceted approach with a significant emphasis on education of affected individuals, families, first responders and other community members. And while technology isn’t always the answer, many families report being helped by wearable tracking devices and related products.
