NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ — The Middlesex County Prosecutor’s Office took part in a statewide summit on autism-friendly law enforcement on November 12, with First Assistant Prosecutor Christopher Kuberiet addressing attendees about initiatives aimed at improving interactions between law enforcement and individuals with autism. The event focused on strategies to make police practices more accessible and supportive for those on the autism spectrum.
During the summit, Kuberiet highlighted the importance of the Special Needs Registry, a program designed to help officers better understand and respond to individuals with special needs, including autism. The registry allows families and caregivers to voluntarily provide information about their loved ones, including details that can be crucial in de-escalating potentially challenging situations.
The Middlesex County Prosecutor’s Office has been a proponent of autism-friendly policing initiatives, working to ensure that officers are equipped with the knowledge and tools necessary to interact safely and effectively with individuals who may have communication or behavioral differences.
The summit, attended by law enforcement officials from across New Jersey, aimed to foster a more inclusive approach to public safety and to promote understanding of autism within the criminal justice system.
