It Takes a Village: Neuro-affirming Supports for 3-Year-Olds

This workshop explores how to create neuro-affirming environments for 3-year-olds that honour individuality and foster belonging. Participants will learn how to embed affirming practices into daily routines, transitions and communication. The session covers co-regulation, sensory supports and language that validates neurodivergent identities. Strategies for strengthening collaboration between families, educators and therapists are also discussed to ensure a strong, connected village around each child.
