Abstract
This panel explores belonging-centered educational approaches for neurodivergent learners through international case studies. Integrating the Interpersonal Whole-Brain Model of Care®, Scotland's NISS project, and The Beautiful Collective's framework, we examine how strength-based interventions create inclusive environments where neurological differences become valued community assets rather than deficits.
