Building a Community of Disability-Affirming, Person-Centered Mental Health Practitioners.
We equip mental health clinicians with the knowledge, frameworks, and confidence to provide quality, disability-affirming care to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, brain injuries, and other cognitive differences.
Most Clinicians Are Already Working With This Population.
Few Feel Prepared.
Individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, autism, traumatic brain injuries, and other cognitive differences are present across nearly every clinical setting, yet professional training has historically offered limited preparation for supporting their mental health needs.
That gap has real consequences for the people who need care and for the clinicians who want to provide it. Many practitioners enter this work without the frameworks or preparation needed to feel truly equipped.
The Luminary Group exists to change that, through education, training, and a growing community of practitioners committed to doing this work well.
