On September 10, 2026, the University of Michigan Neurodiversity Project hosted Dr. Temple Grandin at NCRC for Autism: The Way I See It, bringing together supporters committed to advancing understanding, inclusion, and opportunity for autistic and neurodivergent individuals.

On September 10, 2026, we had the honor of hosting Dr. Temple Grandin at the University of Michigan’s North Campus Research Complex (NCRC). The event brought together an enthusiastic community of supporters committed to advancing understanding, inclusion, and opportunity for autistic and neurodivergent individuals.

Dr. Grandin shared valuable insights that challenged us to think more deeply about autism and the importance of creating meaningful pathways to inclusion, exposure, access, and opportunity. Her perspective reinforced the need to recognize individual strengths, nurture diverse talents, and design environments where different ways of thinking are valued.

Thank you to Dr. Grandin, our supporters, and everyone who helped make this memorable event possible. We look forward to carrying these lessons forward as we work to build more inclusive spaces and expand opportunities for neurodivergent community members.

Together, we can turn insight into action and create spaces where every mind has the opportunity to thrive.
