Neurodivergent District

An inclusive community by Harrington Matchmaking

A Place to Belong

Neurodivergent District was created by Kate Inez Harrington and the Harrington Matchmaking team to create joyful, inclusive spaces where adults who are neurodivergent, have disabilities, or simply feel a little different could feel welcome.

What began as a quiet, local effort in the Washington, D.C. metro area grew quickly through word of mouth.

Today, Neurodivergent District is a community of over 5,000 members worldwide.

Our Founder

Kate Inez Harrington leads Harrington Matchmaking and has nurtured Neurodivergent District’s growth for four years.

While Neurodivergent District remains a free offering, the creation of Constellations marked a turning point for Kate and the Harrington Matchmaking team.

If you have enjoyed this group, you are encouraged to explore how Constellations can be the next step in forming the connections you’re looking for.

Kate and the Harrington Matchmaking team continue to approach this work with a strong sense of responsibility and care for the adults and families they serve. Thank you for being a part of this community.

Kate Inez Harrington lives in the Washington, D.C. metro area with her husband, John, a professional photographer and filmmaker, her stepdaughter, Grace, and Rosebud, an energetic English Springer Spaniel.

You’re invited —
join our database.

Our database is a private collection of member profiles. We reach out to our database members if they seem like a match for one of our clients. If both the client and member are interested, we will help coordinate the introduction and next steps.

Joining the database using the form below does not mean you are signing up for matchmaking services or becoming a client.

Common Questions

  • This database is a private collection of profiles of adults in our Harrington Matchmaking community.

    We store information about each person, such as their age, city, interests, and relationship goals.

    This is not a dating app.
    If you join the database, you will not be able to view other profiles.
    Only the Harrington Matchmaking team can see the database.

    This database of profiles is the first place we look when we search for matches for our clients.

    To join, you may fill out the form below and upload a few photos of yourself.

  • We accept database members from all over the world.

    While we are known for our work supporting and connecting neurodivergent adults, we work with a diverse client base across a wide range of backgrounds and experiences.

    This database may be a good fit if:

    • You are comfortable with us reaching out if and when there is a potential match

    • You are open to the possibility of meeting in person for a first date if a strong match comes up

    • You understand this process can take time and are not in a rush

    • You understand that we have a large database, and we may never reach out with a match

    This may not be the best fit if:

    • You want us to actively search for matches specifically for you, rather than waiting to see if you are a fit for one of our clients

    • You are looking for regular or ongoing match introductions

    • You would benefit from coaching or consistent support in your dating life

    If you are looking for consistent or curated matches, or more hands-on support, you may want to explore our services.

    Our six-month matchmaking packages include coaching, a guaranteed number of matches selected specifically for you, and a dedicated matchmaker/coach who supports you throughout the process.

    For neurodivergent adults seeking a more supported, community-based option without the price point of private 1:1 matchmaking or coaching, we recommend joining our Constellations membership.

  • Joining the database does not mean you will receive a match.

    Many people in the database are never contacted.

    If you would like more support in meeting people, there are other ways to work with us.

  • No. As a Neurodivergent District member, you are eligible to join the database at no cost.

    If we reach out to you in the future about a potential match, there is still no obligation to pay anything. Again, we do not offer any guarantee that you will receive any match introductions once you join.

    If you would like to become a client and have us actively search for matches specifically for you, there is, of course, a fee for our matchmaking services.

    Our Constellations membership, which offers a structured community and additional support crafted for neurodivergent adults, is also a paid program with an annual membership fee.

  • Our database includes people from a wide range of backgrounds. We are especially known for being inclusive of neurodivergent adults, individuals with disabilities, and those who may feel on the fringe of traditional social or dating spaces — though all are welcome.

    We are LGBTQ+ friendly.

    On average, most individuals in our database are between the ages of 21 and 59.
