The peer mentor program pairs neurodiverse freshmen with upperclassmen mentors to help them navigator their first year at Stanford. Peer mentors are paid and trained by SNP staff. There is no cost for neurodiverse students paired with mentors. Peer mentors assist neurodiverse freshmen in their transition to college. Mentors meet weekly with their students and work through the mentoring curriculum, as well as addressing other needs as they arise. Mentors receive training before starting the mentoring relationship and are also given ongoing training and supervision throughout the year.

Post category:Camp Event Program

The DO-IT Center and Center for Neurotechnology (CNT) at the University of Washington sponsor a five-day program for neurodivergent students during the summer. High school and college students receive an introduction to neuroscience and neural engineering, neuroethics, and scientific communication. Participants will learn about research in CNT laboratories. The goal is to provide students with exposure to the field of neural engineering and provide basic preparation for college studies in STEM subjects as well as future STEM careers. Applications for our August summer program are currently accepted for the upcoming summer. Priority is given to students who apply by March 15, and applications received after that date are considered on a space-available basis. Students who complete the summer program will be offered continued activities throughout the school year. There is no cost to students accepted into this program. The application process is competitive.
