Abstract
  • The following pages describe initial findings from the third of three surveys administered in a state of the field study as part of the Modeling Zoos and Aquariums as Inclusive Communities of Science (MoZAICS) for Autistic Individuals project. This study was designed to look across the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) field to understand what inclusive practices zoos and aquariums are currently using to support autistic individuals across the full zoo/aquarium experience (e.g., general visit, programs, events, design of learning experiences, volunteering, internships and employment). In the third survey, zoo and aquarium employees responded to open- and closed-ended prompts that asked respondents to reflect on their as well as their organization’s readiness to support the inclusion of autistic individuals through awareness, preparation, commitment of resources, and other factors that may affect one’s ability to implement inclusive practices. Respondents were also asked to reflect on what kinds of supports would help them to be better prepared to implement inclusive practices for autistic individuals (both staff and visitors).
