“As a neurodivergent family, we understand the complexities that can come from living with a neurodivergent brain, and raising autistic children. As parents, we share in the intense joy and pride that can be felt with each achievement, no matter how big or small. We also understand the moments of worry, frustration, and exhaustion. We advocate each day for our children, no matter how young or old, to have the best quality of life they could possibly dream of, which is possible through access to early intervention, mentorship, guidance and support. As a community we can challenge societal barriers, and create a space in which neurodivergent individuals can truly flourish and thrive.”
