Please read below to find out more about our meetings and programs!

General meeting information:

We have two (2) types of meetings each month. Doors open at 6:45 pm for both meetings. Program or suport group meetings run from 7-9 pm.

  • The Stand Together Support Group for Adults with AD/HD and Parents of kids with AD/HD meets on the 1st Monday of the month at Temple Judea, 5439 Lindley Avenue, Tarzana, CA.

  • Starting with the February 2010 meeting, each of the two types of support group meetings will be meeting every other month.  The February 2010 meeting will be for ADULTS.  The March 2010 meeting will be for PARENTS, and so on.    We will soon update the "meetings and events" section of this website so that you can see when each meeting will be held.  We apologize for the confusion.

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).
