Creating spaces where neurodivergent people can belong, contribute, and thrive.
What does it mean to be neurodivergent?
Neurodivergent is a social identity term that describes people whose brains and, therefore, ways of experiencing the world, differ from what society defines as ‘typical’. Neurodivergent is not a medical diagnosis, though people who identify as neurodivergent may have diagnoses of conditions such as autism, ADHD, intellectual disability, or dyslexia.
Neurodivergence also encompasses mental health conditions, like anxiety and depression; acquired conditions such as brain injury and PTSD; and neurological conditions more commonly thought about in terms of physical symptoms or motor control, like epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, and multiple sclerosis.
If your experience of the world is different to the norm because of how your brain works, you may identify as neurodivergent.
