Welcome to CHADD of Hampton Roads (HR CHADD)!

ADHD AWARENESS SUPPORT GROUP

CHADD (Children and Adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is the nation’s leading non-profit organization serving individuals with ADHD and their families. CHADD has over 16,000 members in 200 local chapters throughout the U.S.

HR CHADD offers support for individuals, parents, teachers, professionals, and others affected by or interested in ADHD.

• Advocacy…by connecting with schools and other regional and national organizations
• Education…by finding speakers who ”speak” to your needs, and by organizing monthly social and support groups
• and Outreach…by participating in community events

Each year, we have monthly meetings. You are welcome to attend one of our meetings. You don't have to join the group just to check it out, and, best of all, it's FREE! Our Meetup group maintains a calendar of events and related information for the Hampton Roads chapter.

CHADD Local Support Groups and Affiliates Need Your Support

CHADD has local support groups in every state in the United States. Each group offers programming or information specific to their geographic area. These groups offer assistance for parents, children, young adults, adults and other stakeholders (psychologists, teachers, doctors, etc.). These groups provide advocacy, support, networking and information to those affected by AD/HD in their communities.

Ways you can support these efforts are as follows:

• Donate to this effort

• Contact your local CHADD group to advocate for support groups

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

• Contact your local community foundation or other foundations in your area to support this effort
