Dear Guelph-Humber Students,

We are thrilled to announce the launch of a brand-new initiative in Winter 2026: The Early Childhood Studies Program presents Neurodiverse Voices, featuring workshops and Peer Engagement!

We recognize that post-secondary life can be challenging, especially for students with unique learning or social needs. This club is designed to be a safe, low-pressure, and affirming space where all students can connect, build community, and develop essential skills.

A Space Where All Minds Are Welcome

Everyone is welcome – whether you identify as neurodiverse, are seeking support, or want to learn more about different ways of thinking. We want to celebrate all differences and help you thrive socially and academically.
