The program integrates crisis-prevention procedures, safety standards, structured curriculum, family intake support, and professional staff training, as documented in our manuals.\nThis project directly improves community safety, enhances access to high-quality services for autistic children and adults, reduces emergency escalations, and trains families, schools, and first-responders.</div></dd>\n<dt name=\"textarea-1758648114412-0\">What is the problem your idea aims to address?</dt>\n<dd id=\"textarea-1758648114412-0\" name=\"textarea\"><div>NYC families raising autistic children frequently encounter:\n\t•\tLack of real-world training environments to prepare for public interactions\n\t•\tHigh risk of escalation in unfamiliar public environments\n\t•\tLimited school options with comprehensive autism-sensitive crisis prevention\n\t•\tGaps between home, school, and city services\n\t•\tOverwhelmed parents without training or structured support\n\nCRARR directly addresses these unmet needs by creating a safe, controlled, simulated “mini-city” school environment that mirrors real-world triggers and teaches adaptive skills, helping children remain regulated and safe in public settings.\n\nCRARR also reduces emergency calls by training families and educators in best-practice safety protocols found in our Safety & Crisis Manual .</div></dd>\n<dt name=\"checkbox-group-1756922140917-0\">Which groups does your idea focus on?
