This month’s meeting will not feature an official presentation. We will be meeting as parents to discuss problems our students face in school and solutions to foster a supportive relationship between families and school personnel. We will share ideas, tips, strategies, and suggestions to help overcome the many challenges children with ADHD encounter in classrooms. The key to collaborating with school personnel is communication. We will discuss how families can get past frustration and misunderstanding to mutual respect and cooperation.

The holidays can be stressful for anyone, though all the more with ADHD in the family! Wouldn't it be amazing if we could keep our center with all the additional activities and commitments that accompany this special time of year? Lisa Joy Tuttle will share how we can prepare for the weeks ahead, and calmly respond to our common stressors, so we can relax and enjoy being with our loved ones.

Let’s transition from the frustrating cycle of making and breaking New Year’s Resolutions and use the new year as an opportunity to practice new eating habits.

Do you have ADHD and feel like you are putting in a ton of extra effort but still not getting ahead? You need systems and support to help transition from feeling anxious and overwhelmed to at ease and renewed. Join us to learn four keys to making that transition.

The concept of Neurodiversity has captured the hearts and minds of the ADHD world lately, though there is a lot of confusion about the term, and to whom it applies. What does it mean to be neurodiverse or neurodivergent? Can a person or group “have neurodiversity”? And what are the Neurodiversity Paradigm and Neurodiversity Movement? Come learn important distinctions between these ideas and the tremendous potentials understanding them can hold for our ADHD community. These topics are central to Lisa Joy’s doctoral research, and she is excited to engage us all in an empowering conversation about them.
