On February 13, the SIOP Local I-O Groups Committee will host Beyond the Narrative: Reframing Neurodiversity, a free webinar designed to further understanding of neurodivergence.
Dr. Jill Janssen, founder of Jill’s Spectrum Coaching and a former school psychologist, will lead the presentation portion of this session, inviting participants to approach neurodiversity with curiosity and an open mind, moving beyond familiar narratives to examine how stigma continues to create barriers in employment, healthcare, education, and public services.
This presentation will cover the diversity of the autism spectrum, challenge biologically reductive explanations that reinforce stigma, and reconsider common assumptions about performance and procrastination through the lens of self-regulation rather than motivation or ability.
There will be opportunities for questions, networking, and discussion following the presentation.
For more information about this webinar, which will be held from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. ET February 13, visit the event webpage, which also includes a registration form.
