Welcome to CHADD of Anne Arundel County, Maryland!

About us: We're glad you're here! CHADD of Anne Arundel County has a long history of supporting individuals and families struggling with the effects of AD/HD. It is a dynamic organization that can make a big difference in your life, whether you are seeking help for yourself, a child, other family members or a friend.

We are a group of volunteers who know from firsthand experience the impact AD/HD can have on a life and a family! Our Chapter networks with local experts of all kinds who seek to provide help, support and understanding wherever it is needed. Plus our connection to the CHADD National organization means we have access to tremendous resources that none of us could possibly have on our own.

We also build awareness and understanding in the community about attention disorders to create a better environment for those with AD/HD. We provide educational presentations to schools, workplaces and other programs to bring the latest information regarding the disorder as well as interventions that work.

Please join us at our Monthly Meetings! We do not meet in June, July or August

Do you need immediate assistance?

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).

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.
