Kevin and Avonte’s Law honors the memory of Kevin Wills and Avonte Oquendo, two boys with Autism who tragically perished after wandering away from supervised settings. The law aims to create safer communities for people with Autism, other developmental disabilities, and forms of dementia by providing grant funding to local agencies.  


The Autism Society of America provides training and technical assistance to the sites that receive grant funding through the Kevin & Avonte grant program in collaboration with the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) and The Arc’s National Center on Criminal Justice and Disability® (NCCJD®).

Connect to Resources: Developed in partnership with Kevin & Avonte’s grant program partners, the Autism Society of America is proud to share this comprehensive overview of wandering. It explores promising practices for implementing communication, technology, and education strategies for wandering prevention, response to wandering, and recovery of individuals who have wandered.
