Santa María implements exclusive parking for families of students with autism

The commune of Santa María has implemented specially designated parking spaces to support families of students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). These spaces are located in front of Colegio Bicentenario Santa María de Aconcagua and Liceo Darío Salas.

The initiative aims to facilitate rapid access for parents and guardians who may need to respond urgently to school calls regarding their children experiencing emotional dysregulation. The measure was developed following discussions between local councilor Abel Valdivia Rozas and differential educators from the School Integration Program (PIE) regarding the difficulty of finding available parking in the town center during emergencies.
