The North Charleston Police Department recognizes April 2nd, 2026 as World Autism Awareness Day, and April as World Autism Awareness Month. As a law enforcement agency, we are committed to serving and supporting individuals with autism and their families within our community. 

During World Autism Awareness Month, we want to raise awareness about autism and promote acceptance, understanding, and inclusion. We believe that every individual deserves respect, dignity, and equal opportunities, regardless of their abilities or disabilities. We encourage everyone to join us in promoting autism awareness and acceptance. Together, we can create a more inclusive and supportive community for individuals with autism and their families.
