ASU Partners
Partner Since 2019
unrestricted interest is devoted to neurodivergent listening, learning, and languaging.
They gather with neurodivergent writers to explore writing practices in their own way, at their own pace.
They practice neurodiversity as an ensemble. They move against the notion that creative life should be normalized under neurotypical demands. They move with the notion that writing flourishes in all directions, as do lives.
They support language accessibility of all kinds. This support begins with listening, and it continues in a pattern of reception and celebration.
They play in spaces of composition and correspondence, where writers can learn and unlearn with teaching-writers, with each other; where words can find deeper ears; where libraries can emerge and entanglements grow; things that happen in the care of making.
They stretch to meet collective and individual needs. All of our work is financially accessible and open to a multitude of forms. Creative practice must be for everyone.
They acknowledge that our work takes place on and across the lands of many indigenous nations. Since our founding location is in Mni Sota Makoce, we pay a voluntary land tax through the Dakota-approved MN Honor Tax. They also financially support organizations that advocate for the rights of nonspeaking individuals to find means of expression and make person-centered choices: CommunicationFIRST, The Alliance for Citizen Directed Supports, and The International Association for Spelling as Communication.

Sometimes the best things fall into your lap
Humble Beginnings of Healing House Energy Spa
These two suburban moms had met a few times through their children. One day Coriene knocked on Jesse’s door. She didn’t think it was weird that Jesse was still in her pajamas and invited her in anyways and Jesse didn’t think it was weird for her neighbor friend to stop by because they had such an easy fast friendship. The two started talking and soon the conversation turned metaphysical. Both ladies became very excited to have someone to share their interest in healing with. After a good two hour conversation Coriene realized that she had come to pick up her daughter, who was actually at a different friend’s house. During the conversation, the idea for the Healing House Energy Spa was created.
