All are welcome to join virtually on Thursday, Feb 26th, at 7PM for “Building A World Without Stigma: Supporting Our Students Who Are Neurodiverse And Their Families”.

Pediatric Neuropsychologist and Licensed Psychologist Dr Eavan Miles-Mason will discuss the impact of stigma on children and adolescents with difficulties that are not obvious to others - learning disabilities, autism, mental vulnerabilities, and ADHD. Interventions to support students and families will also be discussed.

You do not need to have a child with a disability to attend. We are excited to offer this timely and important discussion to the LS and Sudbury communities!

Sometimes a little help with tech needs is just the thing.

🚨 Now Open: Applications for the Allison Keller Education Technology Grant! 🚨

Honoring the legacy of Allison Keller, this grant helps New England schools and autism-serving organizations close critical technology gaps for the autism community. Inspired by how technology transformed Ali’s ability to communicate and connect, this program provides access to essential tools like tablets, laptops, communication apps, and other digital resources.

These tools empower people with autism to thrive, communicate, and live life to the fullest.

If your school or organization could benefit, now’s the time to apply, or help spread the word!
