Tim comes to ECNV from BroadFutures where he was Outreach & Operations Director; linking young, neurodivergent people to paid internships and early work experience. Prior to BroadFutures, Tim was Operations Director for the National Council on Independent Living (NCIL), a disability rights organization that also serves as the national membership association of CILs and SILCs. Tim identifies as neurodivergent and has personal experience with ADHD and Anxiety.
