Alicia A. Broderick, Teaching and Learning, Awarded 2024-2025 HEAL Fellowship
Posted in: College News and Events, Homepage News and Events
Dr. Alicia A. Broderick will use the Higher Education Academic Leadership (HEAL) Fellowship to develop an Institute for Neurodivergent Innovation and Leadership at Montclair. This three-pronged initiative is designed to cultivate and nurture a more neuroinclusive culture at Montclair, to amplify neurodivergent talent, innovation, and leadership on campus, and to curate and support the production of vanguard neurodivergent scholarship at Montclair and beyond.
The Institute’s aims will be addressed through the development of a community Neurodivergent Safe Space Training program and through collaboratively exploring and building partnerships with existing entities and initiatives on campus–for both students and employees–that might recognize, value, and develop neurodivergent leadership on campus. Additionally, the aims of the Institute will be pursued through developing collaborative partnerships with existing international research collectives that spearhead, support, and curate uniquely neurodivergent interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary scholarship.
