NeuroQueer Quest
NeuroQueer Quest is a group for 2SLGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent youth who will play a simplified D&D style role playing game designed by OK2BME. The story takes place at a magical school for 2SLGBTQIA+ adventurers and follows the youth as they complete quests and work toward their goal of personal growth. The group will provide an opportunity for youth to have fun, make friends, and learn skills that will help them to cope with the unique challenges faced by neurodivergent 2SLGBTQIA+ people.
