Horry County offers stickers to alert responders to individuals with special needs

HORRY COUNTY, S.C. (WMBF) – Horry County is now offering ‘special needs stickers’ to help community members notify first responders of a person with a given need in their home or vehicle.

The goal of the window decals is to alert First Responders to any individuals in a home or vehicle that may require special assistance.

The sticker will give first responders an idea of what accommodations may be needed. For example, the use of our sensory kits for those with autism.

Ideally, the sticker would be posted on your car or by the main entrance to your home.

Currently, stickers are available for special needs overall, deaf or hard of hearing, and autism.

If you need a sticker, email specialneeds@horrycounty.org with the type of sticker you would like to request.
