Southern Great Lakes Region Neurodiversity at Work Hub: Home

Welcome to the Southern Great Lakes Region Neurodiversity at Work Hub.

With colleagues and friends from Ohio and Western Pennsylvania, the goal of this Hub is to support neurodivergent students through university, help them find summer internship opportunities, and provide them the support they need to achieve their career goals. We match up students with employers, help train employers how to recruit, interview, hire, and retain neurodivergent job candidates, help neurodivergent adults in the area with additional skills development and coaching, and connect service providers with neurodivergent employees.
