Incorporating Indigenous perspectives in neurodivergent care is essential for creating holistic, culturally safe, and effective support systems. Indigenous communities have always embraced diverse ways of thinking, knowing, and being, offering strengths-based approaches that honor neurodivergent individuals’ unique gifts. When looking at materials on these perspectives, it is vitally important to platform sources directly from Indigenous individuals and communities. While resources, perspectives, and teachings by and for Indigenous populations are also included throughout tapestry, the primary intention of this node specifically is to provide a space for Indigenous-identifying individuals to access specific related resources. Additionally, the hope is that this node can also provide a learning space for non-Indigenous populations.
