Nonverbal learning disabilities in the national spotlight
Gus Walz is the son of vice presidential nominee Tim Walz. You may have seen him cheering for his dad at the Democratic National Convention in August. At that time, many of us learned that he has a nonverbal learning disability or NVLD. In this episode of “In It,” hosts Gretchen Vierstra and Rachel Bozek talk with Dr. Andy Kahn. Andy is a psychologist, and he’s the associate director of Expertise and Strategic Design here at Understood. He also hosts the Understood podcast “Parenting Behavior.” Listen as Andy explains what it means to have an NVLD. He also talks about the relationship between NVLDs and ADHD.
