Natalie is a volunteer server at Coffee for Good. She was named a Civic Scholar through the Civic Scholarship Program at Greenwich Academy for her capstone research project answering the question: “How has activism for neuro-equality taken shape in 20th and 21st century America, and what developed approaches have been the most and least successful at integrating neurodivergent Americans into society?” Natalie used her personal experience from working with the neurodiverse community to answer this question that she believes is essential to moving modern society forwards in a healthy and inclusive way.
