Special Needs Children (ABK) is one of the vulnerable groups in times of disaster. Some of them have mobility hindrance even to perform a defence and personal escape independently, therefore, information is needed on what procedures or plans to take to rescue ABKs who need help from people around them (e.g. teachers, classmates, school staffs). Objectives: To determine the preparedness of children with special needs in dealing with earthquake disasters in Yogyakarta. This research uses a quasi-experiment with one-pretest-posttest design. The samples are selected using a purposive sampling technique, while the data are collected by means of observation sheets. The respondents for this research are special needs children with autism at 'SLB N Pembina', Yogyakarta. Data analysis is performed using a descriptive qualitative analysis. Disaster awareness trainings give a positive influence in reducing disaster risks and in increasing the disaster preparedness of special needs children with autism. Special needs children with autism show ability and participation after performing 5 times simulation. The preparedness increase of special needs children before and after training is 39%.ABK merupakan salah satu kelompok paling rentan ketika terjadi bencana. Beberapa dari mereka memiliki hambatan mobilitas untuk melakukan perlindungan bahkan penyelamatan diri secara mandiri sehingga diperlukan adanya informasi bagaimana prosedur atau rencana penyelamatan bagi ABK yang memerlukan bantuan orang di sekitar mereka (misal: guru, teman, staf sekolah). Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui kesiapsiagaan anak berkebutuhan khusus dalam menghadapi bencana gempa bumi di Yogyakarta. Desain penelitian adalah quasi eksperimen dengan rancangan one pre post test design. Teknik pengambilan sampel dengan purposive sampel sedangkan teknik pengumpulan data dengan lembar observasi. Responden penelitian adalah anak berkebutuhan khusus dengan autis di SLB N Pembina Yogyakarta. Analisis data menggunakan analisis deskriptif kualitatif.
