Neurodiversity is the idea that all brains are different.
Neurodiversity awareness is about raising understanding that there are many different ways that people think, learn, process and interact with the world. It reminds us that differences are to be embraced, celebrated and supported in ways each individual wants to be supported.
For Neurodiversity Celebration Week, CliniKids is launching a new animated video called Neurodiverse Brains (left) which explains ideas around neurodiversity in a simple and fun way - great for supporting kids and families to learn about these important ideas!
This animation was developed in close consultation with members of the neurodivergent community, and is voiced by a neurodivergent child and her mother. We are enormously grateful for the generosity of the neurodivergent community in supporting the development of this resource and their valuable and ongoing contributions to CliniKids.
