Is Your Company Inclusive of Neurodivergent Employees?

Employers are facing a major demographic shift: the sharp increase in the neurodiverse workforce, but -- if we're being honest -- an "In-House" Neurodiversity Hiring Program isn't for every company.

That's why Neurodiversity Workforce Intermediaries (like us!) are here to implement neurodiversity workforce protocols in partnership with employers of all sizes, significantly expanding the number of companies and workers participating. As a bonus, we bring entrepreneurialism to the employment system for adults with developmental differences -- a much needed energy and creativity.

Check out the full article, written by Michael Bernick, to learn more about the different ways employers can respond to the growing interest in neurodiversity employment.

How to hire and support workers with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, Tourette’s syndrome, and other diagnoses.
