Neurodiversity

Neurodiversity refers to variation in the human brain regarding sociability, learning, attention, mood and other mental functions in a non-pathological sense. Neurodiversity is a viewpoint that brain differences are normal, rather than deficits. Neurodiverse people experience, interact with, and interpret the world in unique ways. This concept can help reduce stigma around learning and thinking differences.

“ I realized then, with terrifying clarity: Ima’s boundaries are much more fragile than those of other children and they are never meant to be broken by force. They must be allowed to fade away on their own terms, no matter how much time it takes. ”
