Neurodiversity, the Church and Faith


Listen Later

Dan Weatherall welcomes back Becky Lewis to discuss neurodiversity in church life, recorded during Autism Acceptance Month and following a Birmingham Neurodiversity Awareness Day run by the Christadelphian Support Network (chsn.org.uk). Drawing on family, personal, and teaching experience, they define neurodiversity (which includes everyone) and neurodivergence (about one in seven people) and outline common strengths and struggles for autism, ADHD, and dyslexia.
