Welcome!

About the Burlington County Satellite of CHADD: Karen Lowry is the coordinator.
Dont struggle alone..Come and gather information and support from families who are optimizing their child's academic and social functioning, raising much needed self-esteem! Research states that 30% of children diagnosed with ADHD are not completing high school...let's delete this devastating statistic, a meeting at a time.
FIRST MEETING WILL TAKE PLACE ON THE 3RD WED OF OCTOBER 2010: OCTOBER 20, 2010
Presentations and support group meetings are held on the 3rd Wednesday of every month from 7:00 pm except for June, July and August at the Family Support Organization of Burlington County, 774 Eayrestown Road, Lumberton, NJ 08048

Meetings are FREE, however CHADD groups are financially supported by memberships and donations, so we kindly ask you to consider joining CHADD to help support our mission of improving the lives of those affected by AD/HD. Your CHADD membership or donation will help support our satellite.

Our contact information:

If you are sharing our group's information with those who do not have Internet access, please provide them with our meeting dates, times and location.

We do have an email address that is checked weekly. burlington-county@chadd.net

Do you need information and resource help? As a volunteer, I try to respond as quickly as possible to all requests about our local CHADD group.

However, if you have a more pressing need for information or assistance about the many aspects of dealing with AD/HD (including diagnosis, treatment options, educational rights, etc.), please contact CHADD’s National Resource Center on AD/HD (NRC), online at www.help4adhd.org or by phone at 800-233-4050 (press option 2, Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm Eastern time).

The NRC is staffed by trained Health Information Specialists who can answer many of your questions about AD/HD and provide other helpful information and resources. (NOTE: although the NRC does not provide legal, medical or other professional advice, Specialists can offer ideas and suggestions to help you find what you are looking for).

Community resources and national resources: We have a list of local non-profit organizations, national organizations and CHADD professional and organizational members who have requested to be in our directory in the area in the links section.
