Diversity and Inclusion Resources: Neurodiversity

Resources for faculty, staff, students, and the community

Defined

Neurodiversity is an approach to learning and disability that suggests that diverse neurological conditions appear as a result of normal variations in the human genome.  This portmanteau of neurological and diversity originated in the late 1990s as a challenge to prevailing views of neurological diversity as inherently pathological, instead asserting that neurological differences should be recognized and respected as a social category on a par with genderethnicitysexual orientation, or disability status.
