Neuro Affirmative Youth Work Practice
The badge earner will have participated in a dedicated workshop that brings the learner on a journey of Neuro Affirmative practice in Youth Work.

It’s about supporting needs and challenges without pathologising difference — and ensuring that young people feel seen, heard, and valued for who they are.

- Principles of neuro-affirmative practice.
- The evolving language around neurodiversity and why it matters.
- Tools for communicating respectfully and inclusively, based on how individuals choose to identify.
and the badge earner will have been
