Join us online to meet with Jaya Ramesh, the author of Parenting at the Intersections, a very personal and informed discussion of the challenges and joys of raising neurodivergent children of color.

What if parenting were an act of social justice?
In this part story-telling, part self-inquiry book, authors and therapists Jaya Ramesh and Priya Saaral situate parenting children of color with neurodivergence within the context of various interlocking systems of oppression including settler colonialism, White supremacy, ableism, and capitalism.

Jaya Ramesh, MA LMHC, is a psychotherapist in private practice in the greater Seattle area, specializing in supporting BIPOC neurodivergent individuals and couples in having more authentic relationships. She also runs a DEI consultancy coaching leaders at organizations on creating anti-racist culture in the workplace.
