About this Event

In this lecture, we will break down how to support Neuro Diverse Youth with a sense of empathy and a strengths-based mindset at the table. We will examine how to allow the right amount of conflict, working with youth to build unique narratives that do not talk down to them, the importance of kindness-based authority, and how to help youth mesh while honoring their needs. We will also look at patience-based tactics to keep your cool as a game master, how to honor questions from your players, and language that helps you be seen as a kinder leader.
