Meeting Information: 


Our chapter has an online support community at http://www.meetup.com/CHADD-of-South-Jersey/  You are not required to be a "member" of the site  to receive chapter information or give us your e-mail, unless you choose to do so, to to attend meetings.  

We do have an R.S.V.P on the site to where people can register to attend as we sometimes have limited space due to the size of the assigned room varies each month.  If you do not plan to join our ourline community and you see that we are full for the next meeting, please do not attend as we will not have the space to accomodate everyone.  Our attendees report to us they really enjoy and appreciate the site.  They enjoy using the message board and chatting with other local parents.  Many have found friendships and support via the site.  For those who do not have a meeting in their area the site provides a way to communicate with others.   We do have a digest or daily or weekly e-mails. 


As a volnteer, I may not be able to get back to you if you need immediate assistance.    Please see more information below about getting immediate assistance through CHADD's National Resource Center on AD/HD.
