We want to provide information, strategies and resources to help support individuals who have a unique "neurological profile". The default "neurotypical" profile is that of someone who can "fit in with the herd" - understanding the unwritten "social rules", recognizing and responding to non-verbal cues, and communicating in the "social-emotional" language that most people use to build relationships with one another. However, some individuals may focus more on sensory information (such as sight, sound, touch) or cognitive facts and logic in their interaction with the world. Others may experience intense mood cycles or sensory sensations / beliefs about reality that do not match the experience of the majority. These neurological differences, or"neurodiversity", can cause problems for the individual (and those who are in their social circle), but can also be the source of unique abilities that can benefit the larger community. Just as the natural world has incredible diversity that works..
