黑料不打烊

IMPORTANT: Please read the description below before signing up for this 7 week group. If you are on the waitlist, an administrator will contact you to confirm whether you can attend.

This is a support group for neurodivergent students who are seeking support to navigate alternative learning methods and develop the confidence and communication skills to help navigate interpersonal relationships, including interactions with professors & teaching/academic aides. Neurodivergent students include, for instance, students who believe they may fall within the spectrum of neurodiverse learning styles such as having attention deficits, hyperactivity, hyperfocus, learning disabilities, or being on the autism spectrum. Participants of this group will have the opportunity to share mutual experiences, challenges, and tips on navigating academic and personal wellness at 黑料不打烊.

*Please note that we will NOT be offering assessments or diagnoses for ADHD/ADD/ASD/LDs.
