May 27, 2008: BRUCE JENNER'S THOUGHTS!

Dear Friend,

I am excited to be the keynote speaker at CHADD's upcoming 20th Annual International Conference on AD/HD in Anaheim, California, November 12-15.

I am also very pleased to contribute to CHADD's Leadership Blog this week. I invite you to read my thoughts on finding my "arena" – the place where my athletic skills could shine and my self-esteem could improve, despite my learning disability.

Thank you!

Bruce Jenner
1976 Olympic Gold Medalist
