“I am reaching out to say thank you and congratulations for your efforts to host a fantastic neurodiversity event. The very active and authentic dialogue in the live chat was just one indication of just how deeply the topics resonated with the participants. I personally had several ‘ah-ha’ moments from the information and personal stories shared […] The event educated, encouraged and inspired action. It was just what I need to take the initiative to officially self-identify my disability status and to join the disability CRG. Thank you for your efforts to embody our Pfizer values.”
