Episode 18 (year 5): Decoding NVLD: History, Challenges, Advocacy
This episode explores Nonverbal Learning Disorder (NVLD), a condition marked by strong verbal skills but challenges with spatial reasoning, motor coordination, and social understanding. It covers its history, personal stories, and the ongoing fight for recognition and better support.
In this episode, we explore the history and impact of Nonverbal Learning Disorder (NVLD), a condition characterized by strong verbal skills but significant challenges with spatial reasoning, motor coordination, and social interpretation. From its identification in the mid-20th century by pioneers like Byron Rourke to personal stories of resilience, we delve into the evolving understanding of NVLD. We also highlight the ongoing struggle for recognition in diagnostic manuals and education systems, as well as efforts by advocates to raise awareness and improve interventions. Whether you're new to NVLD or seeking deeper insights, this episode sheds light on a complex and often misunderstood condition.

Episode 24: History of Autism, Aspergers, and NLD
Today's episode is about the history of Autism, Aspergers, and NLD. Here’s the link to the zoom meeting for people with NLD that will be on January 9th from 10 am-10:40 am PT: https://zoom.us/j/94687568942?pwd=STFKT0hpd0dtd2ZvUnRnV3UyK0pIUT09. I may not have my camera on for privacy reasons I'll only be using audio, it's your choice whether or not you want to do the same thing. I want to create a safe place for people with nld to share personal things that stay in this group if they want to share them that is.
