Celebrate Different Brains. Help Everyone Thrive.
Neurodiversity Celebration Week is a global movement to recognise, celebrate, and support neurodivergent minds in schools, workplaces, and communities.
"As a teenager who is autistic and has ADHD, dyslexia, and dyspraxia, my experience has been that people often focus on the challenges of neurological diversity. I wanted to change the narrative and create a balanced view which focuses equally on our talents and strengths.”
Siena Castellon, Founder
This year, our organisations are supporting New Zealand schools, workplaces, families, and communities to celebrate the strengths of neurodivergent brains.
Sharing Strengths:
The Power of Neurodivergent Brains
Neurodivergent minds bring something unique to the world—and that’s worth celebrating! This week, we’re spotlighting five key strengths that neurodivergent people often bring to the table:
-
Creativity – Big ideas, bold imagination, and thinking outside the box!
-
Focus – Deep dives into what matters most, bringing ideas to life.
-
Sensory Strengths – Experiencing the world in vivid and powerful ways.
-
Energy – Passion, drive, and enthusiasm that spark action.
-
Self-Belief – Pushing boundaries, overcoming challenges, and staying true to yourself.
