In honor of Autism Awareness month, (April) the Town of Charlton Police Department will be selling Autism Awareness police patches.  Proceeds from the sale of the patches will be donated to Venture to support our community autism services and programs.  Patches will be on sale through the Charlton Police Department:

To purchase a patch:

Send $10 or a check made out to ‘Charlton Police Explorers’ and a self addressed stamped envelope to:

Autism Patches
c/o Charlton Police Department
85 Masonic Home Road
Charlton, MA 01507

The department will also eventually be hosting an autism awareness training seminar in conjunction with ALEC (Autism and Law Enforcement) and the Worcester County District Attorney.  The seminar is for local police officers to learn and refresh the knowledge needed to protect and communicate when it comes to interacting with people living in our community with autism. Thank you Charlton PD for your community support!
