Embrace Difference
www.embrace-difference.com.auOur goal is to educate and support schools, teachers, parents, carers, families and individuals who are Neurodivergent themselves, teach and support Neurodivergent students or just seek a better understanding of Neurodiversity. This will be achieved through a strength-based, Talent Development Model. All of our teachers have educational qualifications and specialise in Neurodivergent students and are Neurodivergent themselves since as DuBois said, “Children learn more from what you are than what you teach”. We deliver presentations to schools (teachers and carers) to help them relate and support their Neurodivergent young people through both our professional and lived experience. We also support families by advocating for their children within the school setting and coaching them to become more confidant advocators themselves. Neurodivergent students, who are struggling, are supported by a series of assessments and conversations that allow us to develop a strength-based, talent development profile that can be given to schools so that they may understand which environments will help the student thrive. We are passionate about empowering Neurodivergents and their allies with the knowledge and mindset necessary to Embrace Difference! Supporting students with evidenced-based strategies is of utmost importance. For this reason, we participate in research groups that are focussed on helping Neurodivergent students thrive including workshops for NACF (National ADHD Consumer Forum) and the Education Focus Group for the Australian Autism Research Council. This will enable us to help steer, implement and integrate evidence-based strategies in the everyday lives of Neurodivergent individuals.
