Welcome! Book here to join NEUROMANCERS' Alt-Brained Constellation!
About Alt-Brained
This Constellation offers a space for multiply-marginalised neurodivergent people (14+) to examine our struggles on personal and systemic levels as we discuss ways to apply our lived experiences towards building meaningful community.
Meetings will begin with an anecdote from the facilitators to set the tone of the space and then attendees will have the optional opportunity to share their own experiences. Well make connections to the greater systemic -isms and -obias that contribute to our challenges and support each other in coming up with ways to resist erasure, invalidation, and oppression through individual empowerment and collective organising.
We will meet on Wednesdays at 6-8pm UTC for six (6) weeks. (Convert to your timezone here.)
10th April 17th April 24th April 1st May 8th May 15th May
Alt-Brained is led by facilitators with lived-experience of autism and ADHD.
Within all online sessions, captions, use of the chat, and optional
mic/camera will be available. Furthermore, you can join our Discord server to connect
between and beyond sessions. Please contact us with
questions.

What are Constellations?
NEUROMANCERS is a community organisation and radical magazine, for and by neurodivergent people. Learn more about us here.
Constellations are our anti-carceral, sliding-scale Peer Solidarity groups. Peer Solidarity (coined by Aiyana Goodfellow) is an elevated form of peer support which combines political education with community healing. Learn more about Constellations.
How much do the Constellations cost?
In line with our accessibility statements, we offer sliding-scale tickets for all Constellation sessions, with free spaces for Black people. We ask and expect middle class, financially privileged, and white people to engage in personal reparations: choose our higher tier options to redistribute your wealth. All funds go towards our Solar Survival Support (mutual aid) projects.
Each ticket gives you access to all six (6) sessions within this Constellation. These are not drop-in spaces: you must commit to most or all of the sessions.
