What is neurodiversity

Neurodiversity is the idea that brains come in many types—and every person deserves understanding, support, and belonging.

Neurodiversity means that human brains naturally vary, just like bodies do. People think, learn, communicate, and process the world in different ways—and those differences are a normal part of human diversity, not automatically “wrong” or “broken.”

Neurotypical: a brain/learning style that fits what society expects as “typical.”

Neurodivergent: a brain/learning style that differs from “typical” (for example: autistic, ADHD, dyslexic).
