About the Neurodiversity Symposium
So, you’ve been spending time learning about Neurodiversity and Neurodivergent-Affirming care. You’ve explored what Autism and ADHD look like through the lens of the ND-Affirming Paradigm; staying up late to deep dive on the internet to learn more about specific topics that keep coming up in your work. You’ve taken courses and read books, and you’ve joined groups and listservs, but you still have questions about certain topics as they relate to neurodivergence and neurodivergent-affirming care.
This three-day symposium filled with specialized two-hour sessions has been crafted with you in mind. With three full days dedicated to closely examining specific topics and experiences relating to neurodivergence, autism, and ADHD, these two-hour sessions are designed to give you the space to learn with other deeply curious thinkers.
Each day has three individual sessions tailored to that day’s topic. Day One’s topic is Neurodiversity and Oppression, Day Two’s topic is Neurodiversity and Co-Occurrences, and Day Three’s topic is Neurodiversity and Relationships.
Feel free to pick and choose sessions a la carte that appeal to you or register for all three days for access to all nine sessions. We designed this Symposium to be flexible and accessible for all so choose what’s best for your learning needs, your interests, and your schedule. Whatever works best for you!
This symposium and the sessions are meant for folks who already have a strong foundational understanding of the neurodiversity movement and paradigm and may not be suitable for intro-level learners. Intro-level learners are encouraged to register for the “Being Neurodivergent in a Neurotypical World” foundational workshop.
All sessions will be held live via Zoom on Pacific Time.
