Content Warning: Grooming, Abuse and Coercive Control
This webinar discusses the importance of understanding and addressing the unique needs of neurodivergent young people who are affected by coercive and controlling behaviour.
Neurodivergent individuals encompass a broad range of neurological differences, including Autism, ADHD, and others, which can significantly influence their experiences and responses to coercive and controlling situations.
This webinar explores the intersection of neurodiversity and coercive control, shedding light on the challenges faced by neurodivergent youth in identifying, reporting, and escaping such abusive dynamics.
