About the project:
This workshop invites professionals to reimagine how they understand and support neurodivergent individuals. Grounded in a neurodiversity-affirming and strengths-based approach, it challenges traditional deficit models and highlights the importance of adapting environments—not people.
Participants will explore:
• The foundations of neurodiversity and inclusive language.
• Common barriers faced by neurodivergent individuals i
• Practical strategies for fostering autonomy, co-regulation, and emotional well-being.
• Why traditional “social skills training” can be harmful—and how to replace it with authentic, consent-based communication.
This session offers tools for creating environments that celebrate difference, build capacity, and empower individuals to thrive on their own terms.
