Tuesday, Mar. 21 | Drop-In Discussion: Neurodivergence: Drawing the Circle Wider
In January, Rev. Michelle Yates spoke about neurodivergence and how to open our hearts, minds, and church to those who are on the spectrum. “What does it look like to be radically inclusive of neurodivergence in people of all ages? How might we prepare to nurture and serve them too?” Let's revisit her key points, and share our thoughts, hopes, and insights. Rev. Michelle Yates facilitates.
Drop-in Discussions meet via Zoom on Tuesday nights from 6:30-7:30pm. Look on the First Universalist homepage for details and a link, or click the Zoom meeting link in this blurb title!
