Neurodiversity is often viewed as a disability rather than a divergence in brain function. Side by Side strives to change that narrative with the Kids Connect Project, an initiative that aims to foster understanding between neurodiverse and neurotypical teens.

Every Saturday, communities around Arcadia gather to play, create, and connect in spaces where differences are celebrated. From our colorful tie-dye workshops to tennis rallies, teens can spark understanding and friendships that go beyond the program. We understand that when teens come together, things just are better.

We hope to have your support in our initiative. Together, we can keep creating spaces where teens celebrate differences, build friendships, and discover the joy of being themselves. Every Saturday is more than an event. It's a step towards neurodiverse inclusion.
