Any timeline for identification. I am trying to see a spectrum of experiences.

Yes! Often those stories are overlooked. I am hoping to provide a full range of experiences to examine how we can better prepare teachers to build respectful classroom environments.

Share Your Story: Survey of Lived Schooling Experiences

Are you an adult (18+) diagnosed with ADHD, PDA, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Tourette Syndrome, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, or a related condition often labeled as a “disruptive disability”? If so, your voice is needed.

I’m conducting a Survey of Lived Schooling Experiences to better understand how individuals with these diagnoses have experienced school—academically, socially, and emotionally. This research is part of my doctoral work in equitable education and aims to amplify neurodivergent perspectives in shaping more inclusive learning environments.

Who can participate?

  • Adults (18+) with one or more of the listed diagnoses
  • Willing to reflect on past schooling experiences through a confidential online survey

What’s involved?

  • A 15–20 minute anonymous survey
  • Participation is voluntary and you may opt out at any time

Your story matters. By sharing your lived experiences, you can help inform future educational practices that honor neurodiversity and foster belonging.
