“The aim of this research is to convey the experiences of people with Non-Verbal Learning Disability (NVLD). The significance of the Research Project is to the NVLD community, as well as the wider society. To society, the research will help bring recognition and understanding of NVLD experiences as lived truth. This validation may aid in reconsidering requirements for an official diagnosis in the DSM-5 and the IDEA. Since the data collection will be analyzed using art therapy criterion, it can be considered a therapeutic tool to acknowledge safety, significance, and belonging in NVLD patients. By acknowledging their lived truth and giving them a voice through art, the contribution aids in securing the mental health of individuals with NVLD. This will have a wider, positive impact on the health care system securing the need for self-actualization, and self-esteem in this population. My professional goal is to be known as an ethnographic artist; to help make known to others, the culture of a particular group through art. My interests are focused primarily on marginalized populations or those who have no voice. This project helps to build my professional portfolio in that regard. Similarly, my scholarly goal is to begin having my research published in Art or Cross-Disciplinary Journals. ”
