Code of Conduct

We are committed to cultivating a space of care, consent, and collective belonging.

The Cognitive Ecology Assessment is grounded in trauma-informed practice and is designed by and for disabled, neurodivergent, and marginalized communities. We want this project to feel like a sanctuary for honest contribution, curiosity, and repair.


💞 We Welcome

  • People of all neurotypes, bodyminds, backgrounds, and abilities
  • Contributions made slowly, messily, or nonlinearly
  • Respect for diverse communication styles, capacities, and pacing
  • Accountability approached with compassion and context
  • Feedback that centers clarity and collaboration, not control

🚫 We Do Not Tolerate

  • Harassment, gaslighting, or tone policing
  • Dismissal of lived experience, especially from marginalized contributors
  • Exploitation of emotional labor or unpaid intellectual contributions
  • White saviorism, performative allyship, or hierarchical power plays
  • Behavior that centers urgency, perfectionism, or domination

📩 Reporting and Repair

If harm occurs or safety is compromised, you can contact us directly at [email protected]. We are committed to engaging in a process that honors boundaries, supports nervous system regulation, and invites repair when possible.

This is a sacred space. Please treat it—and the people within it—with care.


With gratitude,
The Compassion Collective
