ADHD Awareness Month
October is National Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) month. Join GLAD, CODIE, BGLAD, TCGLAD and OC DEAF by raising awareness on ADHD that impacts individuals and families across the U.S.
Difficulty with attention, concentration, memory, impulsivity, hyperactivity, and social skills — these are among the signs of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, which affects millions of Americans.
ADHD Awareness Month, sponsored by the Attention Deficit Disorder Association, highlights the latest research and clinical studies with the goal of bringing more effective treatments. Its guiding principle is that life can be better for those with ADHD and for those who care or work with someone with ADHD.
