THE 2022 ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ADHD will be both a live and a virtual event. Yes, we will be holding a hybrid conference this year. What does that mean? Well, you can come and join us in Dallas to get all the face-to-face fun that we have always enjoyed. There will be over ninety presentations: workshops, peer support groups, and gatherings of all sorts. Sessions will cover a wide variety of topics for audiences comprising both professionals and consumers. You’ll find fascinating research symposia and an amazing exhibition hall. And don’t forget the talent show!

But if you are not able to make it to Dallas, you can still join us online. Every keynote address will be offered live and recorded. Three sessions from each general conference session time slot will be recorded and you can choose which one to join. Question-and-answer sessions will be available both live and virtual.

Our theme this year is Strength in Connection, as we all adapt to the changes of the last two years and work together to create a better life going forward.

Whichever one you pick—Live Conference or Virtual Conference—mark the date in your diary and plan now to join the largest ADHD event of the year.    Don’t miss out! Register today for the #ADHD2022!                                                   For Further Details and full registration link options go to:  https://chadd.org/conference/
