What is neurodiversity? What disabilities and characteristics best describe someone who fits under this umbrella term? Join us for a workshop that focuses on neurodiversity and invisible disabilities in the workplace. Learn what this concept means, when and why it might be necessary to disclose the diagnosis, what accommodations can be requested.
