Creative Growth is pleased to return for our second year as a presenter at the Stanford Neurodiversity Summit, taking place September 19–21, 2026. Now in its seventh year, the hybrid summit brings together neurodivergent individuals, families, educators, employers, service providers, students, and professionals from across the field of neurodiversity.

This year’s theme is  “Building Strengths through Neurodiversity Innovation". 

As part of this year’s summit, Creative Growth will participate in “Finding One’s ‘Voice’ Through the Arts,” a conversation exploring the role of creative practice in self-expression and independence. The presentation brings together a group of speakers with personal and professional connections to neurodiversity and the arts, including Ryan Woodard, musician, singer, and songwriter; Travis Woodard, CEO of Ryan Woodard Productions and Vice President & General Manager of Urban Tree Farm Nursery; Dan Miller, artist at Creative Growth; Cara Miller, sibling; and Sophia Alvarez, UCB MSW student, previous Artist Care staff for Dan Miller at Creative Growth.
