What does it take to build a community where neurodivergent and queer adults can truly thrive—not just survive? For LGBTQ+ adults with ADHD, traditional community models often fall short. Long meetings, unspoken norms, and social pressure can lead to masking, burnout, and exclusion. But there’s a better way.
Join coach and neuroqueer advocate Dylan Alter for a fresh, affirming, and radically practical session on creating ADHD-friendly, queer-affirming community spaces. Drawing from lived experience and collective insights from the Neuroqueer.org project, Dylan will walk attendees through the real challenges—and real possibilities—of building intentional, inclusive communities that celebrate difference, accommodate fluctuation, and foster genuine connection.
You’ll leave inspired, supported, and equipped with strategies you can start using now—whether you’re building your own space or finding your place in one.
