Neurodivergents Unite May 2026
Overall purpose:
To provide a safe space free of judgement where neurodivergents (millennials and Gen Z)from all backgrounds can gather together, have insightful discussions, share ideas, and connect. It's also free!
Who is this for?
This group is primarily aimed at Millennials and Gen Z who are diagnosed with or suspect that they have a neurodivergent condition. These include autism, ADHD, dyslexia, among others.
Duration: 2.5 hours
The event is divided into three rounds:
Round 1: Ice-Breaker Dialogue
Attendees will answer card prompts. If time permits, they can answer them all, and go their own direction in the discussion. These prompts are mostly light in tone.
Round 2: Show-and-Tell
After the icebreakers, we'll take this time to express passions or strong interests with each other. I encourage you to bring anything that represents such a passion or hobby such as a craft, book, instrument, etc. You can deep dive and really let loose. But, if you decide not to, you can always speak to the interest. And if you would prefer to just listen to others showcase, that's fine too. As long as everyone would would like to share gets their chance, all will be well.
Round 3: Deeper Discussions
Like Round 1, this round involves being in groups and answering prompt questions. However, the questions are more serious in nature, and are mainly related to aspects of life as a neurodivergent, positive, negative, or neutral.
End:
A closing discussion and upcoming announcements.
Breaks and sensory accommodations: If needed, we can take breaks lasting around 5-10 minutes in between rounds to give people time to decompress and loosen up before the next round.
People are encouraged to excuse themselves as needed during a round to take a sensory break. Also, fidget/stim toys are encouraged if they help. We want everyone to feel comfortable and safe. Of course, if you need to leave the event early for any reason, that is completely understandable.
Any questions or concerns can be addressed to chat.neurodivergentsunite@gmail.com.
