Access is a basic right, not a favor or checklist. Social workers must create inclusive spaces for disabled people from the start. On #GlobalAccessibilityAwareness Day, we urge colleagues to pause, reflect, and act.

Neurodivergence is not a deficit.
It’s difference.

And when workplaces design for difference, everyone wins.

Thank you, University of Denver, for making space for this conversation at GAAD 2025 → bit.ly/GAAD-DU-25

Different kinds of minds build better solutions.

That’s data.

Groupthink kills innovation.
Neurodiverse teams kill groupthink.

It’s not charity. It’s strategy.

If your friend, partner, child, or parent was neurodivergent — what kind of workplace would you want for them?

Why not build that now?

Neurodivergent teams perform better when they feel like they belong.

Psychological safety isn’t optional — it’s essential.

We don’t have a people shortage.
We have an inclusion shortage.

Neurodivergent talent is everywhere — if you know how to look.

Neurodivergent people do have soft skills.
They just might look different than you expect.

Want to retain neurodivergent talent? Look beyond stereotypes.

Masking is exhausting.
Hiding parts of yourself to survive at work? That’s not inclusion.

What if workplaces were designed for authenticity instead?

Fitting in = Changing who you are to be accepted.
Belonging = Being accepted for who you are.

Neurodivergent people deserve belonging.

It’s not a skills gap.
It’s an access gap.

Bias.
Interviews built for extroverts.
Workplaces built for sameness.

We can fix this.

Neurodivergent people don’t struggle to do the job.
They struggle to get the job — because hiring systems reward style over substance.

Let’s change that.

Neurodiversity isn’t a trend.
It’s a fact of life.

The future of work belongs to teams that know how to include all kinds of minds.

Today is Global Accessibility Awareness Day #GAAD2025 —a day that means a lot to me, both professionally and personally.

Here is a playful reminder that our identities don’t come with a manual or warnings —but maybe they should come with expansion packs.

An A.I. digital rendering of seven toy-style blister packs styled like collectible action figures. The largest package on the left features a likeness of me labeled “ADHD Adult,” holding a hammer and fishing pole with accessories including a chicken, koi fish, and “How To” book. Surrounding it are five themed “expansion packs” labeled Japanese Watercolor, Woodworking, Gardening, Korean Cooking, and White Water Rafting. Each contains clay-style miniature tools and items representing that hobby. Text reads: “It’s okay to be me!” and the Global Accessibility Awareness Day logo.
