About the Event
On January 28, 2024, the Next Steps Neurodiversity Expo was held in the Exhibit Hall at the Boulder County Fairgrounds in Longmont. This free community event celebrated neurodiversity and supported individuals of all ages with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and other neurodiversities. Families, individuals, professionals, and advocates gathered to access resources, meet service providers, and explore supports designed to enhance the lives of neurodivergent individuals.
With more than 85 vendors and over 900 attendees, the Expo offered a wide range of supports including diagnostic services, mental health care, speech therapy, occupational therapy, educational programs, coaching services, adult support groups, and employment assistance. The event created a welcoming space where community members could explore options, ask questions, and connect with providers offering tools and pathways to help neurodivergent individuals thrive.
