Sometimes our young people need medication, but deciding whether to start a new medication (or understanding one they already take) can feel overwhelming.

This webinar provides foundation knowledge about medications, including dosage, generic and brand names, if you need to consider other foods/supplements while taking it, and who to turn to when you have questions. We’ll also look at practical, neuro-affirming strategies for supporting your young person to take medication, including sensory considerations, predictability, communication and different ways medication may be offered.

Hair care, nail care and mouth care can all be surprisingly difficult for neurodivergent young people. Sensory experiences, body awareness, communication, autonomy and health needs can all shape how these everyday routines feel.

In this workshop, we’ll take a neuro-affirming look at hair, nails and mouth care, exploring why these tasks can be difficult and what might make them more manageable.

Puberty brings big changes to the body, but it can also change how emotions feel and how easily young people become overwhelmed. For neurodivergent and learning-disabled young people, these changes can sometimes show up as increased distress or changes in how they communicate their needs.
