GROVE Neurodivergent Mentoring and Education supports Autistic children and young people, by Autistic adults. Every mentor is Autistic, and the work builds self-understanding, self-acceptance and connection rather than trying to change who young people are. GROVE works online, so young people can join from anywhere. I am Education, Training and Resource Specialist at GROVE and write guest blogs for the site.
