How is The NVLD Project making a difference?

Research

The NVLD Project is conducting evidenced-based research with several renowned institutions and experts, including epidemiologic, neuroimaging and neuropsychological studies. Our research initiatives also include a distinct effort to secure inclusion of Non-Verbal Learning Disability into the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM).

Education

The NVLD Project is working to educate parents, educators, professionals and the public about Non-Verbal Learning Disability. With the opening of the The Lemle Clinic, we are helping those working with individuals with NVLD better understand the disorder. Our education efforts also include an educational toolkit for professionals.

Outreach

The NVLD Project is committed to helping those with NVLD in order to bring about positive change in their lives and greater acceptance by society. We do this through several initiatives, including awareness campaigns, ongoing communications efforts, special events, social media, our ambassador program and more.
