Centre for ADHD Awareness, Canada

This ADHD Awareness Month, we are celebrating the power of community.

Living with ADHD can bring unique strengths, challenges, and experiences. No one should have to navigate that journey alone. A knowledgeable and supportive community helps people with ADHD feel understood, empowered, and connected.

Whether support comes from family members, friends, healthcare professionals, educators, employers, or fellow members of the ADHD community, these connections create opportunities to learn, grow, and thrive.

We'll be at Centennial College Event Centre in Scarborough, Ontario, on October 24th and 25th for a fantastic weekend filled with ADHD education, tips, resources, and community connection.

Avez-vous du mal à comprendre et à gérer le nouveau diagnostic de TDAH de votre enfant ? Le programme de 3 semaines conçu par le CSTC est une première étape pour les parents dont l’enfant vient d’être nouvellement diagnostiqué. Il expliquera les bases du TDAH, ainsi que la façon dont il peut apparaître à la maison et à l’école. Il permettra aux parents de mieux comprendre leur enfant, ainsi que des occasions de partager leurs expériences avec d’autres parents.
