Who We Are

The Neuroverse Foundation is a non profit organisation, founded by Shae Williams and Lara Beltrame. Together with our board members we have created a foundation that offers connection, empowerment, inclusion and community to support carers of neurodivergent individuals to feel seen, heard and part of a village.

Founders

Shae Williams

Co-Founder, Chair and Secretary

Shae is the Chairperson and Secretary of The Neuroverse Foundation. She has been trying to get this non-profit off the ground for almost two years.

Shae is autistic and ADHD and is a mum of two neurodivergent boys who are proudly Aboriginal Australians. She has been hosting a support group for parents/guardians of neurodivergent children. Shae felt that there was a gap in the Mitchell Shire and worked with Lara to offer support to neurodivergent families.

Shae is a primary school teacher and currently a Disability Inclusion Coordinator. She is passionate about equality for people living with disabilities and we are excited to see what Shae brings to the organisation.
