Wings for Autism, November 7th at Logan Airport

The Wings for Autism program is designed specifically for families with children with autism to help ease the stress of flying.  A FREE event open to all will be held on November 7th, at Logan Airport at 9am.

Registration is required.  http://www.charlesrivercenter.org/what-we-do/wings-for-autism/

During this FREE, half-day event, children and their families are able to familiarize themselves with the airport and travel procedures.  They experience entering the airport; the check-in process and checking bags; security screening; boarding the plan; preparing for take-off; and exiting the plane.

Wings for Autism was created by the Charles River Center, a chapter of The Arc located in Needham, MA, in collaboration with the Mass Port Authority and TSA.
