Boomer Parks Receive Certified Autism Center Designation

​Eight of Boomer Parks’ Family Entertainment Centers (FEC) and Water Parks have achieved the Certified Autism CenterTM (CAC) designation, accredited by the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES). This milestone sets a new standard, as Boomers Parks becomes the first family of FECs to earn this certification at every location across California, Florida, and New Jersey.

To attain the CAC designation, Boomers Parks has dedicated itself to ensuring that 80% of their guest-facing staff have undergone comprehensive, evidence-based training, which includes perspectives of autistic individuals. Moreover, IBCCES conducted onsite assessments of Boomers Parks attractions, including Boomers Santa Maria, Modesto, Los Angeles, Livermore, Irvine, Boca Raton, as well as Big Kahuna’s in New
Jersey and Florida to provide recommendations and sensory guides, all aimed at further enhancing the overall guest experience.

“Boomers Parks places a strong emphasis on accessibility and inclusion within our core values. Our approach is rooted in genuine compassion for all our guests, with the goal of ensuring that everyone feels genuinely
welcomed and well-accommodated,” shared Tim Murphy, CEO of Boomers Parks.
