Find people who understand, in spaces built for different minds.

Share

Offer a story, a resource, or a small moment of kindness.

Support

Help keep a neuro-affirming community growing.

#GatheringAcorns

Share your acorn.

Your acorn is your story, your why. Here's how to plant it:

  1. Fill in your acorn

    Add your name and your connection to neurodiversity to the acorn template.

  2. Copy and paste this post, then add your story

    Another acorn coming in now…

    This is my acorn, my story, my why: [add your story here]

    I'm joining @Squirrel Space in #GatheringAcorns because no one should have to go through it alone. If we all do our small part, we can change this world, one acorn at a time.

    Your turn: share your acorn and tag a friend.

  3. Tag @Squirrel Space and post

    Attach your acorn. Type @Squirrel Space and pick the page so the tag works.

  4. Donate and spread the word

    If you're moved to, donate at squirrel-space.com and invite a friend to plant theirs.
