Purpose: The neurodiversity initiative provides training opportunities to promote awareness, understanding, and acceptance of students, faculty, and staff in our university community who are neurodivergent.
Our 3 training initiatives are:

  • “Defining Neurodivergence,” a one-hour presentation to introduce neurodivergence and its characteristics.
  • “Blue Zone” training provides faculty and staff with comprehensive training on specific strategies to effectively work with and support neurodivergent students.
