Tulare County Museum Declares Its Dedication Toward Autism

Thursday, February 29, 2024

Tulare County Museum proudly declares about its recertification as a Certified Autism Center™, preserving its status as an example in terms of inclusivity together with the initiative of Visit Visalia to make Visalia a Certified Autism Destination™. This recertification with the help of the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards underlines the dedication of the museum to helping autism and sensory-sensitive community all through the continuing staff training and certification.

At present, for guests, the museum provides a tranquil ‘quiet space’ who may feel stunned, confirming a soothing and accommodating environment for everyone. They have adopted careful measures to recognize and alleviate possible sensory challenges within their space, states the team at the museum. Be it a heads-up about a high-energy school group or presenting a peaceful harbor, they’re proactive about the comfort of the guests.

Museum curator, Amy King-Sunderson, speaks about the institution’s eagerness: They are proud to stay as a partner organization in turning Visalia a Certified Autism Destination™. Inclusivity is something the museum attempts for seriously, and this is a major step in offering that for their visitors.
