City of Tempe Certified Autism Center 

The City of Tempe recently earned the Certified Autism Center (CAC) designation from the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES). Through this process, more than 900 employees completed the IBCCES training and implemented innovative ways to better serve those with autism or sensory-sensitive individuals and their families in our city.  

During this certification, IBCCES conducted reviews of many of our facilities to help provide recommendations for how the City of Tempe can better serve and accommodate the needs of our visitors and community members.

Sensory guides were created for each location through the IBCCES review process and are listed below.
