This Disability Pride Month comes at a difficult time for our community and the broader population. As we watch what is happening to special education, Medicaid, SNAP, safety nets that ensure Autistic and other neurodivergent people, it be can hard to feel pride in our disability.

It's been 30 years since the Neurodiversity movement began, but our history? It’s scattered—spread across the internet, lost to defunct websites, and held in the memories of those who were there.

There is a white background with a red block at the bottom of the page. In the white it says "Herding Cats" in red and "and other stories from the genesis of the Neurodiversity Movement" in black underneath with a building block brain logo in the upper right corner. There are several single line drawings of cats playing with balls of string. In the red block, it says "a podcast by Foundations for Divergent Minds" and the Spotify and Apple Podcast logos.

It's #GivingTuesday!

FDM has always relied on the support of our community. We know many in our communities are facing significant financial hardship. With many nonprofit organizations facing the same struggle, it can be daunting to be inundated with donation requests.
