Meet the Team
TEAM HEDELUND

Responding 2 Autism was created for our sons—and for every individual with autism who deserves to be safe, understood, and respected. As a family raising two boys on the autism spectrum and with deep roots in law enforcement, we saw a critical need to bridge the gap between autism and emergency response. By combining lived experience with professional service, we work to equip first responders and communities with the knowledge and tools to create safer, more compassionate interactions — Because when knowledge meets compassion, lives change.

And truly, the more we know, the better we do.
