CHARLOTTE COUNTY – The Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office has created a special program for some special people!
The new ‘Handle with Care’ decal will alert deputies to the possible presence of someone with a communication disability inside a home or a vehicle.
This will allow deputies to consider how they approach and interact with who they encounter.
The program is for community members with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Asperger’s, Alzheimer’s disease or similar disorders.
Anyone interested in the free Handle with Care program can pick up a decal at any district office. No medical documentation is required to enroll, and no personal information will be taken.
To utilize this decal, we ask that you position it on the back of your vehicle or front of your home.
