Summary

This study tested special safety kits for children with autism who tend to wander away from safe places. Caregivers of 65 children aged 4 to 11 rated how useful each kit item was and how the kits affected their stress and ability to go out in the community. The goal is to use this feedback to create a larger program to prevent elopement.
