SUMMARY:Women's Group: Peer Support for 18+
DESCRIPTION:Women often face unique experiences as Autistic and neurodivergent individuals\, including how we socialize\, societal expectations\, and how Autism is understood and expressed.  \n\n\n\nWe’re thrilled to offer a group designed specifically for Autistic and neurodivergent adults (18+) who identify as women or who connect with experiences of womanhood.* This is not a therapy group\, but rather\, a supportive\, non-clinical space to discuss and share ideas\, lived experiences\, and connect meaningfully with others. \n\n\n\nThe content and resources shared in this group are informed by both lived Autistic experience and research as they intersect with gendered experiences in society. \n\n\n\nIn this session\, we’ll talk about different aspects of being Autistic and what that means and looks like in daily life. Participants are welcome to share lived experiences and discuss strategies that have been helpful for them.  \n\n\n\nTopics may include: \n\n\n\n\nStrategies for regulation\n\n\n\nCommunication strategies\n\n\n\nLifestyle changes\n\n\n\nSensory-friendly accommodations\n\n\n\nLeaning into interests\n\n\n\nFinding neurodivergent community and support\n\n\n\n\n*This group is intended for Autistic and neurodivergent folks who identify as women or who connect with experiences of womanhood\, inclusive of non-binary and other 2SLGBTQ+ identities and expressions. This boundary ensures that participants can share openly without explanation\, justification or judgement. \n\n\n\nPlease also note: During this session\, Sinneave staff\, guest presenters\, and attendees may share information about community resources. Some information provided may not be accurate\, up-to-date\, or reliable for everyone. Attendees are also encouraged to be critical consumers of information available on the internet. Providing information about a community resource is not endorsement\, and Sinneave does not assume any risk for the outcome of using the information shared during this session. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTuesday\, April 146:00 – 7:30 p.m.In-person at The Ability Hub (300\, 3820 24 Ave NW)There is no cost to attend. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration is appreciated\, but not required.
