Abstract
Inclusion is considered a universal human right. It is about giving and ensuring equal access and opportunity and the removal of barriers to inclusion. When it comes to safety, this is an area that many on the autism spectrum have been denied true inclusion. Being able to evacuate in the event of a fire or disaster is inclusion. Not dying in a fire is inclusion. Safety protocols and training is necessary and needed for all families, children, and adults living with autism, as well as other developmental disabilities. Inclusion for safety starts here. Ways to ensure inclusion as it relates to safety, life, and death will be discussed in this chapter through the lens of applied behavior analysis.
