We celebrate you, we support your individuality, and WE value your neurodiversity
Why "Platypus"?
The platypus is a remarkable symbol of individuality—much like each of us. It embodies the idea that we don’t have to fit into just one category. Our name reminds us to recognize that everyone possesses a unique combination of talents, interests, and passions that define who we are. At Platypus, we celebrate these differences and encourage each person to fully embrace and express their true selves.
​
Uniquely you—just like the platypus.
