Foster Care Training

This engaging and interactive workshop equips participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to create neuro-inclusive environments that support and respect neurodiverse individuals, including children, youth, and professionals in foster care and juvenile justice systems. By understanding the evolution of the disability access movement and fostering a social and cultural model of disability, participants will learn to recognize and amplify the strengths of neurodiverse individuals. The session emphasizes practical strategies for implementing neuro-inclusive practices in various settings, especially those serving court-dependent families, and highlights the importance of ally behaviors and creating accessible, power-neutral spaces that empower all abilities.
