But girls with learning and thinking differences often have their symptoms overlooked. They’re told to try harder. To stop being lazy. Women who remain undiagnosed often blame themselves when things aren’t working out for them.
At Understood, we believe that everyone deserves to get a correct diagnosis. They deserve the support they need to thrive. That’s true no matter their gender or age.
Your gift drives research that’s focused on women. It lets us create podcasts about the unique challenges faced by women who learn and think differently. And mindfulness activities to help women manage anxiety and build the coping skills they need to thrive.
Together, we can make sure that every woman feels understood.
