The NVLD Project is a nonprofit organization focused on awareness, support, and practical solutions for individuals with Non-Verbal Learning Disability across children, adolescents, and adults. It pursues its mission through a mix of educational workshops, research, and community outreach, aiming to improve understanding of NVLD and its implications for learning and daily functioning. Based in New York City, the organization operates with a small staff and collaborates with external partners to tailor instructional approaches and group activities to the needs of people with NVLD. A longer-term goal is to establish NVLD as a formally recognized disorder in the DSM. In recent activity, the organization noted a collaboration with the Mary McDowell Friends School to modify instruction and group work to support students with NVLD.
