NeuroDiversity Media (www.neurodiversitymedia.com )

Our core product, NeuroWork, tackles the information gap by translating research into practical findings across a variety of content formats. We actively engage with our readers to tell neurodiverse stories that resonate universally. We educate people about the value of neurodiversity by translating research into accessible stories that resonate. And finally, we empower people with evidence-based knowledge to create jobs and advocate for themselves.
