DENVER - ColoradoDesk -- Guiding Bright Minds (GBM), recently named Favorite Community Event and Favorite Outreach Program by Colorado Parent Magazine's 2025 Family Favorites Awards, proudly announces the 4th Annual Neurodiversity Resource Fair, taking place on Saturday, June 13, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM at Denver Academy.

As Colorado faces a historic rise in neurodivergent diagnoses and families navigate long waitlists for support, the GBM Neurodiversity Resource Fair offers immediate access to trusted providers, essential services, school options, therapies, and community resources—all in one inclusive, sensory-considerate space.

Last year's fair brought together over 1,200 families, 100+ organizations, and countless educators and professionals. Many families reported life-changing outcomes, including immediate placements with specialists they had spent months trying to access.

More on Colorado Desk
"A parent told us last year that she'd been on a six-month waitlist for an evaluation—then met a provider at the fair who could see her child in two weeks. These moments remind us why this event matters," said Tiffany Feingold, Founder of Guiding Bright Minds.

What's New for 2026
  • New location: Hosted at Denver Academy to support growth and offer more space, accessibility, and comfort.
  • Expanded Sensory Support: Quiet rooms, and sensory-friendly pathways
  • Enhanced Family Experience: Interactive zones, Dinger from the Rockies, giveaways, hands-on activities, and opportunities to directly connect with experts.
"Denver Academy is honored to partner with Guiding Bright Minds to host this powerful event," said a representative from Denver Academy. "Our missions are closely aligned—celebrating neurodivergent learners and giving families the support they deserve."

Why This Event Matters
  • Neurodivergent students represent approximately 20–30% of Colorado's youth.
  • Waitlists for evaluations and therapy services can exceed 6–12 months.
  • Families often struggle to find trustworthy, vetted, and neurodiversity-affirming providers.
The fair bridges these gaps by connecting families directly with experts in:
  • Mental health & counseling
  • Occupational & speech therapy
  • Specialized schools
  • Educational and IEP advocacy
  • Neurodiversity-affirming medical care
  • Social skills, enrichment, and after-school programs
  • Transition-to-adulthood resources
