Given the high prevalence of ADHD and autism within the LGBTQ+ community, this one-hour workshop explores the intersection of neurodivergence and gender diversity. Participants will gain insight into the unique stressors neuroqueer individuals face and learn practical ways to offer support.

The session includes an introduction to neuroqueer theory, framing ADHD and autism as social identities that can be integrated into a person’s sense of self. By the end, attendees will have a deeper understanding of the connections between neurodivergence and gender queerness, along with tools to foster inclusivity and support.
