Program is affirming and inclusive of all gender identities and expressions.
Dungeons & Dragons is a tabletop roleplaying game that allows for freedom of expression, supports social emotional growth, and has been clinically proven to reduce social anxiety in adults, teens, and young children. In being part of a shared story, players can achieve self-mastery through exploring a fantasy setting that adapts and grows with them. Boundaries are determined in an RPG Consent Form and within individual Session Zeroes to ensure that each game is curated for each individual’s needs.
