City of Tempe Community Services

The City of Tempe community services, which includes park and recreation, public library and arts & culture departments, worked together to collectively earn the Certified Autism Center™ designation. The City strives for an inclusive experience for all we serve, embracing an Inclusion Form for all programs so play is never restricted but embraced for all people. Tempe makes waves as a technology and business magnet, an inclusive, caring community and a hub for recreation and adventure.

Many community services locations received onsite reviews to provide insights, recommendations, and sensory guides to help enhance the visitor experience, especially those with sensory sensitivities.

These locations include:

• Tempe Public Library
• Kiwanis Park
• Tempe History Museum
• Edna Vihel Arts Center
