Certificación en autismo

Mesa, Arizona is the first-ever CAD –Certified Autism Destination. This designation has been heavily marketed and promoted to autism spectrum disorder (ASD) communities across the U.S. and within Mesa’s established target markets. Certification illustrates to individuals and families affected by ASD that they can trust Mesa as a dedicated tourism destination serving individuals with autism.

Certification is achieved when at least 80% of guest-facing staff is trained and certified in the field of autism. Through the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES) and Autism Travel, Mesa and our partners will be part of a network of trusted travel professionals already serving the ASD community.

WE BELIEVE…

Visit Mesa and our governing Board of Directors believe certification is the right thing to do to serve this growing, yet underserved community. It's an unmatched opportunity for Mesa to elevate our national travel brand and our destination promise, as well as to book more business and attract more visitors to our City Limitless® destination. It is part of our overall mission to become one of the most accessible cities in the nation.
