Neuro-Affirming Education - A Live Workshop for Educators

Are you an educator, teacher, learning assistant, or school psychologist responsible for teaching and supporting neuro-divergent students?

Join us for an engaging and informative session dedicated to Supporting Neuro-Divergent Students (with a focus on autistic students and ADHDers.

Creating a safe educational environment for neuro-divergent students is crucial as it significantly impacts their mental health and academic outcomes.

Gain valuable insights and practical strategies to foster a positive learning atmosphere for these students.

Please note that while neuro-divergent individuals encompass a wide range of neuro-types, this presentation will primarily focus on the unique needs of autistic students and ADHDer.

We will cover these important areas:

  • Understand the significance of language and its impact on neuro-divergent students.

  • Explore the neuro-affirming movement and its importance in education.

  • Identify and unpack unhelpful expectations commonly found in many schools.

  • Discover actionable changes you can implement within your school to better support neuro-diversity.

  • Foster collaborative changes by working closely with your neuro-divergent students.

  • Manage the competing demands of the classroom effectively.

  • Consider beneficial modifications to the school environment, including the yard.

  • Explore communication considerations when interacting with neuro-divergent students.

Tea, coffee, and lunch will be provided.

Understanding your neurodivergent sibling (Webinar)

Understanding your neurodivergent sibling (Webinar)

Understanding why your sibling behaves the way they do, can be confusing for some children with a neurodivergent sibling.

This webinar is a fun, child friendly presentation that aims to support siblings to understand neuro-diversity. It’s an hour of information, and there is time for anonymous questions too!

Great for siblings of ADHDers, autistic children and OCDers. This presentation talks to differences, rather than deficits and is neuro-affirming in its underpinnings.

Participants can eat their dinner while watching or relax on the couch. Parents are welcome to sit with their child during the webinar.
