An Interview with Board Director Janice Biddle

"One evening, I was pulled over by the police, and as they approached my vehicle, they noticed my A-NOD decal. Immediately, their demeanor softened, and instead of a tense interaction, the officers calmly asked if I was alright. Their awareness and approach eased my anxiety in a situation that would have otherwise been overwhelming. It felt like they recognized the decal from previous training, which reassured me that they understood the potential need for accommodations. Thanks to A-NOD INC., I experienced firsthand how this small but powerful tool can create safer, more compassionate interactions between individuals with situational anxieties and first responders."
