About the D&D Groups
Our Dungeons & Dragons groups are for neurodivergent teens and adults who are interested in joining a fun, welcoming, neurodivergent community. Dungeons & Dragons, often called D&D, is a collaborative role-playing game where players create characters and work together to build a shared story. The Dungeon Master guides the adventure, presents challenges, and supports the group as they make choices together.
Groups Offered
Groups are for neurodivergent individuals (autism and ADHD). All D&D experience levels are welcome, from beginners to experienced players.
We offer three different groups based on stage of life:
-
- Adults (ages ~ 25+)
- College Students
- Teens (ages 15-17 )
The focus is on exploration, fun, and connection, not winning. D&D offers a relaxed and engaging environment where participants can build friendships, practice teamwork, explore self-identity and strengths, and develop resilience, self-esteem, and self-advocacy.
