TLCC - Neurodiversity & Mental Wellness Group Meetups

Hi folks,

TLCC is just around the corner[1] and Shelly and Heath will both be there for all the fun and games[2].

The Neurodiversity and Mental Wellness affinity group have an assigned private room that will be available 24/7 as our dedicated space. All rooms will have round tables and chairs and a sofa seating area, and our room in particular will have some de-stress activities to help you relax, regenerate and escape when you need it. Drop on over to the Osceola-2 on the main Ballroom level.
