As a volunteer, I may not be able to get back to you if you need immediate assistance.
If you are seeking information for something that is time-sensitive (such as an IEP/Section 504 meeting at your child’s school), or are looking for a local professional with AD/HD expertise, please contact CHADD’s National Resource Center on AD/HD (NRC), online at www.help4adhd.org or by phone toll-free at 800-233-4050 (press option 2, Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm Eastern time).
The NRC is staffed by trained health information professionals who can answer many of your questions about AD/HD and provide other helpful information and resources. (NOTE: the NRC does not provide legal or medical advice, but can offer ideas and suggestions to help you find what you are looking for).
Disclaimer: CHADD does not endorse or represent products, services, publication, medications or treatments. Meetings are free and open to the public, although membership with CHADD is strongly encouraged, since your local group will receive a portion of your dues to continue supporting your community.
Volunteer Opportunities:
Interested community members and parents could volunteer by offereing to disseminate relevant information to schools and other locations frequented by parents of children with AD/HD and ADD.
The national CHADD office has provided appropriate materials for use during the National AD/HD Awareness week which is from September 14 to 20, to coincide with the beginning of the school year.
If you would like to volunteer your talents to this group, please send us an e-mail at south-pinellas@chadd.net
