Preparing Neurodiverse students to soar into the drone industry

Our mission at Neurodiversity Works is to support and empower individuals with unique neuro-differences, such as autism, ADHD, and dyslexia, in their pursuit of careers in the drone industry. We believe that neurodiversity should be celebrated and not viewed as a disability. Nearly 20% of the population is neurodiverse, yet there is an 85% under/unemployment rate in the neurodiverse workforce. Our programs are designed to help these individuals reach their full potential and succeed in the workforce.
In order to fulfill our mission, we have several initiatives in place. We provide comprehensive workforce development programs that prepare students for successful careers in the drone industry. Our programs are designed to foster inclusivity and support the unique strengths and talents of neurodiverse individuals, helping them to achieve their full potential in this rapidly growing field. To accomplish this, we partner with local families, School to Work Alliance Programs, Career Technical Education programs, and other support and advocacy organizations.
