Rochester Police Department Launches Project for People with Special Needs
The Rochester Police Department has initiated a new project to enhance interactions between law enforcement and individuals with special needs and vulnerabilities.
Rochester Police Officer Brenna Hogue, a mother of a child with autism, shared her personal experience with the stresses of her daughter wandering off.
“She would wander — I think she got out maybe five times or so. It’s a super quick instance where you turn your back, and all of a sudden, she’s gone. And being a mom, especially for the kiddo that can’t talk, it is so, so scary,”she said.
Author summary: Police improve interactions with special needs individuals.
