The Center for Neurodiversity Education, Support and Training (NEST) at UMass Lowell has an affiliates group made up of neurodivergent individuals, family members, and professionals in the field. The Affiliates help guide the research and service work of NEST, and help ensure we are conducting work that is meaningful to the neurodivergent community.
Including the voices of neurodivergent individuals themselves in the work we do is central to the goals of NEST. In turn Affiliates have the opportunity to network with NEST faculty and students, professionals in the field and other members of the group, to get involved with research projects, and contribute to the work of NEST.
