October is Learning Disabilities Awareness Month - a time to celebrate the creativity, confidence, and brilliance of those who learn and think differently. This year, The Neurodiversity Alliance launched its first-ever “Neurodiversity Is…” campaign, inviting students, educators, and allies nationwide to share what neurodiversity means to them. From powerful words to student-created videos, this movement is reshaping the way the world views learning differences.

Applications Open November 1: The Neurodiversity Scholarship

The nation’s largest scholarship program for neurodivergent students opens soon! Students with learning differences, ADHD, autism, and other forms of neurodiversity are encouraged to apply and share their stories for a chance to receive up to $2,500 toward their education.

The ND Alliance Is on the Move

This fall, our team is traveling across the country, connecting with students, educators, and advocates through campus events, conferences, and community panels. Each gathering is an opportunity to celebrate neurodivergent voices, build inclusive communities, and strengthen our growing movement.

Share What Neurodiversity Means to You

Whether through a single word, photo, or story, your voice matters. Join the conversation using #NeurodiversityIs and help us shift the narrative from awareness to celebration.
