The Neurodivergent Employee Resource Group is a private community for neurodivergent Rowan faculty and staff. 'Neurodiversity' is the full range of variation in cognition, learning, behavior, and socialization that exists within the population. Being 'neurodivergent' refers to having a brain/mind that may function differently than socially established norms. Individuals identifying as neurodivergent may include those labeled with dyspraxia, dyslexia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), dyscalculia, autism, and Tourette syndrome.
This group aims to establish a community where neurodivergent Rowan faculty and staff can freely exchange resources and engage in discussions pertaining to their experiences being neurodivergent at Rowan. It is important to note that this group functions not as a formal support group but rather as a platform for members to foster a sense of community and belonging at Rowan.
All meetings will be held virtually. If you identify as neurodivergent or think you may identify as neurodivergent, you are welcome here!
