We are looking for participants for a series of two online 90-minute focus groups. These will take place in early November 2026 (times to be scheduled in consultation with group members).
The first session will focus on understanding how neurodivergent adults experience aging and currently access supports.
In the second session we will engage in collaborative activities designed to identify areas for future research designed to foster the development of effective supports and system change that facilitates healthy aging for neurodivergent adults.
Along with attending the focus groups, we will also ask participants to do some reading in preparation prior to the first session and between the first and second sessions, which should take no more than 2 hours for a total of 4 hours. All participants will be provided with an honorarium of $200 for their participation.
