Gilbert Parks and Recreation recently earned the Certified Autism Center™ (CAC) designation from the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES) for undergoing training and implementing new programs and resources that better serve autistic or sensory-sensitive individuals.

During the certification process, IBCCES conducted an on-site review of key parks and community centers in Gilbert to help provide recommendations on how the town could better understand and accommodate visitors’ needs. Staff also participated in training from subject matter experts and autistic self-advocates.

A sensory guide was created for several facilities in Gilbert. View the entire guide or sort by location below.
