Speaking Neurodivergent: The Value of Neurodiverse Communication Styles

Traditionally, neurodivergent communication has been labelled as a “deficit.” But what if it isn’t a communication deficit as much as it is a communication difference?

We will discuss how treating cross-neurotype communication differences like cross-cultural communication differences can help students of every neurotype flourish.
