A gathering for Autistics, their families, caregivers, educators, policymakers, government, and the community in general. Embracing Neurodiversity provides engaging sessions to enrich understanding and inclusivity within our communities. It is the only conference solely dedicated to the autistic community in the province.
Now in its forth year, the conference has increased awareness of autism and the current, progressive research and approaches to supporting autistics. The conference has heightened the need for society to include different neurotypes and has provided an increased understanding of the importance of first voice/lived experience.
Embracing Neurodiversity elevates and centers autistic voices and experiences in a safe and welcoming environment.
