Neurodiversity within the LGBTQIA+ Community
Bitesize or extended Training with David E. Hull-Watters
Discover how neurodiversity intersects with LGBTQIA+ identity in this powerful, interactive training session. Designed for workplaces committed to equity and inclusion, this session explores the unique experiences, strengths, and challenges faced by neurodivergent LGBTQIA+ individuals.
What You’ll Gain:
- A clear understanding of neurodivergent colleagues, clients, customers/service users (ADHD, autism, dyslexia, Tourette’s, and more)
- Insight into why LGBTQIA+ people are more likely to be neurodivergent — and what this means for inclusion
- Awareness of key issues like masking, rejection sensitivity, and emotional regulation
- Practical strategies for allyship, inclusive communication, and supporting authenticity at work
- Inspiration to foster a culture of belonging, representation, and empowerment
Why It Matters:
Neurodivergent LGBTQIA+ people often face compounded barriers to acceptance and inclusion. This training goes beyond awareness—encouraging participants to challenge bias, create affirming spaces, and transform workplace culture from the inside out.
Ideal For:
- DEI teams, people managers, and HR professionals
- LGBTQIA+ and disability network leads
- Anyone who wants to build inclusive and psychologically safe workplaces
