SUMMARY:Stanford Neurodiversity Summit
DESCRIPTION:The Stanford Neurodiversity Summit: What We Stand For\n\n\n\n“The Stanford Neurodiversity Summit is a forum for exchange of ideas about neurodiversity among all people.  It is a venue where we listen to each other\, especially when our views are not the same.

Here is where neurodiverse/neurodivergent people\, their family members and friends\, educators\, clinicians\, researchers\, and all other stakeholders and professionals learn from each other. Neurodiverse individuals will share their unique life and professional journeys\, and some will share their significant contributions to the community. Other professionals and stakeholders will illustrate how their work enhances the lives of neurodiverse individuals. \n\n\n\nThe Stanford Neurodiversity Summit encourages respectful inquiry and invites attendees to submit questions to speakers before and during the summit. We have set up interactive sessions between speakers and attendees and will collect views of the community about what research and community-based services should be prioritized and how they can be designed better. With your contributions\, our collective efforts will build a sanctuary for all who promote and safeguard neurodiversity.”
