What is Neurodiversity?

Neurodiversity is a word to describe the diversity of human brains and minds, gifting different skills, abilities and needs. A similar idea to how biodiversity refers to biological diversity.

Neurodiversity includes Autism, ADHD, learning differences, mental health conditions, as well as acquired neurodivergences, such as dementia.

The focus of NDATS is on Autism and ADHD.

What is Affirming?

Encouragement to view neurodivergence as a positive characteristic with valid strengths, which does not need to assimilate to the neuro-majority.
