In Starting Early, Strengthening Neurodiversity, for this course, the practical stakes show up in better alignment between intervention and the family context in which it must survive, not in abstract discussion alone.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), ADHD, Dyslexia, Tourettes and other related syndromes are all examples of neurodiverse conditions. Understanding and embracing these differences in the education system as well as the workplace can greatly benefit individuals as well as our social organizations.
