Neurodiversity and neurodivergence may feel like buzz words that are thrown around, but what do they mean, and why does it matter?
In this session, neurodivergent experts from Disability Belongs share their own perspectives on what it means to be neurodivergent, why authentic representation of neurodivergence is necessary, and how employers, educators, and allies can foster and cultivate an inclusive environment where big brain energy can thrive.
Neurodivergent creatives (who represent one-in-seven adults in the U.S.) can learn how to advocate for themselves and request workplace accommodations that work for them.
Employers will learn how accommodations are simpler and less expensive than you might think while also maximizing productivity and employee retention. Together we can create an environment that is both inclusive and supportive of neurodiversity.
This webinar is part of the 2025 BRIC Summit.
