From resource sharing, to unmasking symptoms, to undoing ableist beliefs and advocating for accommodations, acceptance and access, to simply feeling seen, heard and loved—cultivating community is critical as someone who identifies as neurodivergent (“neurodiverse”). Here’s a tiny list of some online communities/ways to cultivate community and become informed: 1. ADHD: Join ADDA, CHADD, ACO 2. Autism: Join Autism Speaks, Autism Society, AACAP, Autism Self-Advocacy Network 3. General Mental Health: NAMI, Mental Health America 4. Local groups have meet-ups, share free and reduced cost services for legal matters, self-advocacy tools, advocating for education plans (IEPs and 504s), locating funding, conferences, and mental health or other support services. By the way…the ADHD International conference is coming up in November in Anaheim, CA and the virtual one in March next year! You can sign up for that here: https://lnkd.in/g43hC4RJ
