LIVED EXPERIENCE: We are a cooperative community, led by/for Neurodivergent adults. All co-op worker owners, volunteers, participants, and community members have intersectional lived experience. All affinity/identity-based groups are led by those with shared lived experience.

ADVOCACY: We strive to build a world in which Neurodivergence is understood and celebrated. We educate our greater community about societal and internal biases, as well as the discrimination we face as Neurodivergent, Disabled, Chronically Ill, and/or Mad adults.

ANTI-OPPRESSIVE: Our space is anti-ableist, anti-carceral, anti-oppressive, and led by the principles of Disability Justice. We intentionally provide a supportive and accessible space

MUTUALITY: We are all worthy of giving and receiving care. We support each other by building a community of care, where everyone matters and everyone is equal.

JOY: We recognize that there is a trope built around “inspirational” or “happy” disabled individuals and also recognize that as disabled individuals we often lack access to community events and activities that spark moments of joy. As such, we encourage community events, groups and clubs that help us explore and celebrate Neurodivergent joy!

SELF-DETERMINATION: We believe that every individual is their own expert and has the right to make their own choices and control their healing journey.
