This 11-week online program is co-designed and peer-led by neurodivergent facilitator/s. It offers neurodivergent participants the opportunity to reframe their understanding of autism. The aim is to help participants understand how autism affects them personally and thereby increase their confidence and self-awareness.
The program covers a range of topics including the social model of disability and neurodiversity, the benefits of neurodiversity to employers, culture and society, fluctuating functioning and how to manage and plan for different situations.
Interviews will be conducted closer to the start date with our program facilitator to ensure the program is properly suited to you.
