The the other one is is uh outside of education is that I think we

We still need to do much more work to make sure that our workplaces are uh inclusive of all people.

I think sort of coming out of twenty twenty and um the challenges that our nation began to reckle with reckon with around uh criminal justice reform.

Um, there was a push for diversity, equity, and inclusion.

And I think neurodiversity is a part of that conversation that honestly is still not uh at the forefront that it should be.

Um, you know, again the

uh intersectionality I think is really important.

Um and uh so being able to work with

with employers.

All right.

I just did a talk with a foundation that brought together a group of maybe thirty arts organizations, um uh medical facilities, financial companies, and um, you know, they billed me as a guy who was going to talk about disability.

And I think everybody thought that it was just going to be a conversation about how to provide support for um, you know, like folks with wheelchairs who were coming in

the front door.

And my conversation began around, you know, you are all employers.

And part of the the way in which we are inclusive is by making sure, ensuring that we employ a diverse workforce.

And part of that conversation is people who are neurodiverse um have other kind of challenges.

No, I think it absolutely.

It absolutely is an opportunity.

And, you know, a lot of what we've been utilizing now is what uh advocates have been fighting for for years, right?

And it's been very interesting to see with a true sense of urgency how we've all been able to virtually stop on a dime and change the way in which we experience school and work and a host of other things.
