Promotional graphic for a Q&A with Hannah Diviney. The top section features the heading “Q&A With Hannah Diviney” alongside the ANDPA logo and a quote by Hannah: “For me, I’ve always been one of those people who leads with their heart, so I don’t really know how to hide things from people when I’m telling a story.” Below, on a teal background, the left side shows a portrait of a Hannah Diviney wearing a dark floral sleeveless top, and the right side shows the book cover I’ll Let Myself In.

We’re thrilled to share a Q&A with @hannahdiviney.bsky.social, author of 'I’ll Let Myself In' - our February book club read. In this conversation, Hannah shares on storytelling, representation, honesty, and leading with heart ✨ andpa.org/2026/02/21/q...

A graphic that is mainly green and white. The Neurodiversity Celebration Week logo is in the top left and the ANDPA logo is in the top right. The text reads “We’re Supporting! March 17 – 23, 2025. www.neurodiversityweek.com”

(cont.)When I first heard about the creation of ANDPA I saw the value it could bring to the GLAMR industries, and I wanted to be able to contribute to making a difference.

What inspired you to volunteer with ANDPA?
Due to my lived experience as a neurodivergent individual I care about creating more inclusive environments in libraries, both for patrons and employees and have a personal interest in making these spaces more inclusive for autistic individuals.

The image includes the ANDPA logo with a yellow and teal border designs. This is followed by the text: "Statement in Solidarity with Marginalised Communities. When we witness marginalisation, whether through systemic barriers, cultural bias, or overt hostility, speaking out is not optional. Our hope and action lie within the communities that we are grounded in. To stand with marginalised communities is to affirm their inherent worth and rights."

Today, ANDPA has released a 'Statement in Solidarity with Marginalised Communities.' The full statement is available on our website. shorturl.at/DwuXc

This statement serves as a reminder of our collective responsibility to stand with those who experience systemic exclusion or discrimination.
