A Day For You
It doesn’t need to be much. Simply acknowledging the day and taking a moment to reflect on who you are, or your knowledge and understanding, is more than enough. And if you feel like doing something bigger or bolder, that’s great too!
Take a minute to selfreflect.
If there is only one thing you do today, take a moment, a minute, an hour, to self reflect on what beauty your own neurological differentness brings to the world. What makes you proud to be neurodivergent. To take a minute for “your neurodivergent self” has been the core tradition of ND Pride since 2018.
