SNP-REACH is a two-week summer camp for high school students. At this camp, students have a variety of opportunities, which include learning more about neurodiversity advocacy, the strengths-based model, universal design principles, and more. Students can also hear from neurodivergent student advocates and collaborate on neurodiversity advocacy projects that they can continue beyond the program. Students conduct group projects of their choice using the design thinking approach.
Students will join via Zoom or in person on Stanford's campus from around the US and around the world. The remote setting allows students to listen carefully to educators, make use of closed captioning, and use preference of voice or the chat function to communicate, which fosters full engagement in group discussions. Leading lecturers, researchers, and clinicians from Stanford and around the country will present on different aspects of neurodiversity and allyship. Small group projects allow students to connect in a deeper, more active way. Both remote and in-person formats allow students to make new friends, expand their worldview and continue the conversation beyond the camp.
We will give out acceptances on a rolling basis.
