In this episode of Agents of Nonprofit, I sit down with Joanna Lund-Pops to explore her inspiring journey from volunteer educator to advocate and coach in the nonprofit sector. Together, they unpack how organizations can move beyond stereotypes, embrace inclusivity, and make neurodiversity a core part of their practices.

Topics We Cover:

• The joy of fostering “spark” moments in young learners
• Defining neurodiversity vs. neurodivergence and why the distinction matters
• Common strengths of neurodivergent individuals, from creativity to pattern recognition
• Why universal practices, not one-off fixes, help all staff thrive
• The hidden costs of “masking” in professional environments
• How AI tools like ChatGPT can support both neurodivergent professionals and managers
