United for Inclusion

Empowering neurodiverse families

The toolbox has been handy and essential for my life. I take everything I learned during the period that we were in constant support. I keep each of the strategies provided, experiences of each, and relaxation methods that are already part of my daily life. The experience of each one of us during each session is of quality and constant learning.

I think the tools given here can be carried out with myself, first of all, and with family and close friends. It should be noted that also with co-workers since they are also part of our daily lives. We will implement everything learned with you in some way or another in certain situations.

Thank you for so much love, affection and patience with me. Taking this toolkit helped me know what I want to focus my energies on as a mother and person. Thank you very much, Manu for Inclusion Foundation. I love you so much, and you have been a blessing to my life.

I take a lot from the toolbox. I keep going over it because it has many details that I sometimes don't remember, and they are essential. I love how they divide everything, and analyzing each point is of vital importance. I believe that all mothers in the world should benefit.

From the community, I'll tell you that I have you, Elizabeth, and the girls from La Diversidad Une, plus a co-worker.

Thank you so much for everything!!!!!
Blessings and lots of light

Vision

Through personal development education, one on one emotional support, and practical experience sharing, our intention is to provide a sense of empowerment for inclusion and independence on behalf of individuals with unique needs and those who love them.

“Inclusion is to learn to accept and love myself/yourself and as a natural result I/you would love and accept another human being, earth, and the present moment”
