Welcome to Putting Accessibility into Practice Series. In this four-part series Microsoft Most Valuable Professional’s (MVPs) & Regional Directors (RD’s) share their lived experiences of how they have dealt with neurodiversity challenges and dyslexia. The willingness to share and address topics that carry stigma is a vital step in strengthening the core of a community where everyone feels that they belong. This series will provide everyone in the community a chance to come together and share experiences and learn more about importance of accessibility and inclusion.
