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 ADHD (including diagnosis, treatment options, educational rights, etc.), please contact CHADD’s National Resource Center on ADHD (NRC), online atwww.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 ADHD 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).

Local Volunteer Opportunities
To volunteer your time, please contact elkins-park@chadd.net.
We welcome all contributions of time and skill. We are in particular need for a recording secretary for our board meetings, which are once a month at a members house, usually on a weekend afternoon. It's a great way to get involved and know more about your support group.
We are also in need of greeters at our Parents' Meetings. If you like to meet and greet people, this is a great way to get to know all the participants in our meetings. Whether you come to every meeting or most, we welcome your help.
If you are a professional in the field of ADHD and would like to volunteer to speak at an upcoming meeting, please contact us at the above e-mail.

Local CHADD groups offer assistance for parents, children, young adults, adults and other stakeholders (psychologists, teachers, doctors, etc.). CHADD groups also provide advocacy, support, networking and information to those affected by ADHD in their communities.
Ways you can support these efforts are as follows:

Contact your school district to host and support newly forming or current groups
