First Place Global takes to heart what home means to individuals, their families and all their loved ones. Through spirited collaboration and new thinking, we’re working hard to protect it. For adults with autism and/or I/DD. For a lifetime.
The Learn4Independence® curriculum taught in the First Place Transition Academy—and licensed in communities across the nation—helps build a foundation for personal and community security. Courses cover home and financial security, along with health and identity protection—all designed to reduce risk.
Engaging law enforcement so that officers are more knowledgeable, understanding and supportive of adults with autism and/or other intellectual/developmental disabilities can help prevent dangerous situations and protect lives. First Place works with the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office, as well as Goodyear and Chandler police departments.
