Why we are Passionate about Neurodiversity in Education

"As a mother of four unique individuals with learning challenges, including ASD and dyslexia, I know first hand how neurodiversity impacts the learning experience. As an educational specialist and individual with my own learning challenges, I have spent years researching and implementing methods for the betterment of others with neurodiversity and executive function difficulties. I am excited to be a part of a team passionate about sharing these evidence based methods with other learners."  ~ Carol
