Tech and Me: Discussing Neurodiversity, Chronic Illness, and Disability in Tech
Listen now
Description
In this event we discussed Neurodiversity*, Chronic Illness, and Disability with four Black women/NBP in the Tech space.  For this panel talk we were joined by 4 speakers in different tech roles who came together to talk about what their experiences have been like, challenges they have faced, and support they have received that has helped them flourish.  This is an important topic to discuss whether it affects you currently, will do in the future, or not at all.  * Neurodiversity usually refers to range of specific learning differences including ADHD, Autism, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Epilepsy, and Tourettes We've collected a range of resources mentioned in the talk here: bit.ly/TechAndMeResources
