Queer and Neurodivergent
Second Friday of the month, 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., chill room (yellow door)
Welcome to our community!
All neurodivergent individuals who identify as queer, live beyond cisheteronormativity, and are interested in connecting, sharing, and networking, are invited.
This is what neurodivergence means to us:
Feelings, perceptions, and needs fall outside the framework that society considers “normal.”
People often receive medical diagnoses such as autism, ADHD, ADD, learning difficulties, epilepsy, mental illness, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, apraxia, cerebral palsy, dyspraxia, etc. (see nibi.space/neurodivergence)
People do not need a diagnosis to be welcome here.
People do not have to be “sure” that they are neurodivergent; a suspicion or question in this direction is enough. Talking to other neurodivergent people can sometimes be helpful in gaining more certainty about whether or not this term describes their experience.
There are several rooms on site, including a quiet room. We will provide stimming toys. Please write us to let us know what you need to participate!
Often our meetings happen like this:
-short introduction and check in round (How are you here today?)
-Exchange about different topics concerning neurodivergence and queerness. This can happen in one big group or multiple smaller groups. Feel free to bring your own topic!
-check out round (how was the meeting for you?)
-communal tidying and cleaning
