Let’s Talk About It Podcast | March Disability Awareness Month: Disability & Neurodiversity in Queer Communities

Topic/ Theme: Disability Awareness Month (March): Disability & Neurodiversity in Queer Communities

Description: In honor of Disability Awareness Month, this episode explores the intersections of disability, neurodiversity, and queerness. Topics include autism, learning differences, mental health, accessibility in queer spaces, and how disabled LGBTQIA+ people build community and advocate for inclusion.

The conversation centers lived experience, challenges stigma, and highlights the importance of designing queer spaces where all bodies and minds are welcome. 

Program Description: Tune into our monthly podcasts, where we amplify youth voices on creating supportive conversations around mental health and well-being. Designed for transitional-aged youth (18-26) and continuing our youth-focused podcast series for ages 12-18, each episode offers a space for honest dialogue and shared experiences. Some podcasts will coincide with special events and programs, featuring panel discussions and opportunities for broader participation. Each session begins or ends  with updates on our organization’s latest programs, ensuring you stay connected with our community resources and initiatives. Join us for meaningful conversations that empower and connect!
