Do you identify as neurodivergent and want to be involved in co-production of our research, which is about societal inclusion for neurodivergent people?

We are looking for 7 neurodivergent people (aged 18 or over) to join our advisory group.

The government is rolling out an Emergency Alerts system this year. The alerts will appear on phones and make a sound even when phones are on silent.

Having a secret phone can be a lifeline for survivors so we've created a guide on managing alerts: https://t.co/f11KKuSYIb

Companies too often recruit for social skills over job skills. Leaving autistic people who have difficulties understanding questions & body language to feel they have failed a job interview before it's started.

Change how you interview. #HireDifferent: https://t.co/A88zczxmj2

[Women's Aid @womensaid]

If you are concerned about your phone & #EmergencyAlerts, @RefugeCharity have a film showing you how to turn it off on your phone 👇

We will be providing more info for survivors & for our member organisations about #EmergencyAlerts in the lead up to the first alert next month.

We know companies want to create neurodiverse teams, but many lack the resources to help.

The Autistica Employers Guide to #Neurodiversity launched today features tips for interviews, workplace adjustments & talking about autism at work.

[Right to Equality @Right2Equality]

We are committed to ending the presumption of child contact with an abusive parent. Contact with an abuser is harmful for children and parent survivors. It causes significant and irreparable harm. The law needs to change. Here’s why. Thanks to @BarnettAdrienne, our advisor.

[Dr Sophie Kearney @Sophiekpsych]

Are there any other #dclinpsy trainees out there with neurodiversity, specifically #ADHD #Autism who want to link up for peer support? It feels like quite an isolating experience at the moment…
