Supportive guidance for neurodivergent people

What can help first

• Choose your communication style — text or call.
• Ask for sensory-friendly support (“low volume”, slow pace).
• Ask if they have a preferred way to communicate.
• Calm steps include paced breathing, grounding (5–4–3–2–1), and safe distraction.

Find local support (province / territory)

Tip: If you need immediate support and can’t find a region-specific service quickly, call/text 988 and ask for sensory-friendly / neurodivergent-affirming assistance.
