Greater Boston Hub: Virtual Neurodiversity Inclusion Meet-Up

The Greater Boston Hub, organized by nonprofit consultancy Neurodiversity in the Workplace™ (NITW), is a community of practice that comes together regularly (via Zoom) to network, share knowledge, and advance neurodiversity hiring in our region.
