Neuro Enhance Network hosts peer-support workshops aimed at developing a national education base to foster a more realistic and informed understanding of neurodiversity and psychosocial disability in Australia—in workplaces, in communities, and at home.

NEN offers practical tools and skills designed to fill the gaps in current misapprehensions about neurodiversity and psychosocial disability. NEN’s workshops build empathy, understanding and practical learning about best practice, self-advocacy, rights, neurodiversity and psychosocial disability. 

Hosted in workplace settings, healthcare and community spaces, the workshops allow participants to give their voice and ideas to create a larger picture of neurodivergence and psychosocial disabilities and contribute to the National Disability Strategy 2021-2031.
