🧡 This is a Neurodivergent meetup created by and for Neurodivergent people (ADHD, Autism, OCD, Sensory Processing Sensitivity/HSP, and so on), whether clinically diagnosed or self-identified.

💗 The goal of this event is for Neurodivergent people to meet, share, connect and have a pleasant time together.

This particular event is all about sharing and connecting on our neurodivergent journeys. Whether you're questioning, just starting out or have been navigating this path for years, everyone is welcome.

🧡 DISCLAIMER:

• This event is not a workshop, and the organizers are not here to provide education on neurodivergence.
• The organizers are all neurodivergent volunteers! Help us in keeping the event welcoming. Be kind and patient to us, lend a hand if you can, and help us tidy up.
• Note that we are in public space, so not all sensory distractions are avoidable. We ask for your own discernment for participating.

💚 What to expect:

• Participants will be given name stickers.
• If you choose not to speak during event, draw a neurodivergent symbol instead of your name on the sticker.
• Participants will be divided to smaller groups (max 6 people), so everyone can have a chance to talk and feel included.
• Feel free to rotate to other groups. The organizers will assist you.
• Participants are encouraged to bring their sensory management tools (ear plugs, sunglasses, etc).
• Please be mindful to other people's personal space.
• Participate as much as you feel comfortable of. Feel free to: not speak (you just need people's company), take a break when you feel overwhelmed), etc.
• Express your boundaries in kindly manner to give everyone the chance to be aware of their actions.
• Ask first before you touch other people’s belongings

We’re excited to meet your lovely faces in person!
