New Leaf Learning Community is being created for children who are too often asked to change themselves to fit systems that were never designed with them in mind.

We are building a neurodiversity-affirming learning community that is rooted in dignity, autonomy and connection.

This project grew from years of work with neurodivergent children and families who have been unable to identify a safe and supportive school where they can thrive. We believe children deserve spaces where they can belong exactly as they are today, without the risk of trauma.

What Your Support Helps Fund
• Preparing and securing a physical learning space
• Legal, licensing, and startup costs

A Note on Tax Deductibility: New Leaf Learning Community is currently in the process of applying for 501(c)(3) nonprofit status. Donations made at this time are not tax-deductible, but all funds will go directly toward launching this learning community with transparency and care.

Every contribution, big or small, will help us grow the learning community we’ve all been yearning for, these kids deserve better.

Once our website is live you will be able to follow our journey, our goal is to launch our pilot program in the Fall of 2027!
