Creative Spirit US Information

Creative Spirit is a non-profit 501c3 organization devoted to creating integrated employment opportunities for neurodivergent individuals. Our mission is simple: to create and support the successful placement of neurodivergent individuals at the most creative, forward-thinking companies in the world. Creative Spirit was born and is dedicated to providing the opportunity for employers to be matched with individuals who are loyal, enthusiastic, qualified, and bring a new kind of energy to any organization. The goal is to create 1 million jobs during this decade, for the upwards of 10 million neurodivergent adults in the US alone who are currently unemployed—a staggering 85% of ready, willing, and able adults. In doing so, we will change the face of what true diversity in employment looks like via advocacy, awareness, and most importantly, action. Currently, less than 15% of those with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDDs) who work are subject to significant pay gaps or go unpaid altogether. This is a global crisis, and likely the most profound human rights employment issue of our time, yet it goes unsolved.
