Nurturing Neurodiversity with Nature: Cultivating Wellbeing and Belonging
29 May 2026 // 2:00PM – 3:00PM ET
This session will center on the idea of place and how natural spaces on campus can help neurodivergent students engage in sensory care, reduce stress, and practice coping skills. Drawing on research and experience, presenters will highlight the importance of creating intentional, inclusive environments and how sensory-based nature programming can foster belonging for neurodivergent students. Participants will explore connections between neurodiversity, nature, and mental health as well as learn new ways to guide students towards community and wellbeing.
