Neurodivergence
At LMU, we recognize that every mind brings unique strengths to our community. Neurodiversity is the natural variation in how people think, learn, communicate, and process the world, including autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and other learning and sensory differences. In keeping with our Jesuit and Marymount commitment to cura personalis, care for the whole person, LMU welcomes and values neurodivergent faculty and staff and is committed to creating a workplace where everyone can contribute, grow, and thrive. Explore the LMU Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion website for more information about resources, faculty and staff organizations, and events.
