Blessed Minds: Breaking the Silence About Neurodiversity

Join us to challenge the stigma surrounding neurodivergent individuals and explore practical steps for creating inclusive and supportive faith communities. Affecting up to 20 percent of Americans, neurodiversity includes autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and several other conditions. With themes of vulnerability, compassion, and justice, Blessed Minds is a call to recognize the divine nature of all minds and to foster a church environment where every individual is valued and celebrated.
