The Society for ADHD
The Society for ADHD is dedicated to empowering adults, faith-based communities, and historically marginalized populations through ADHD awareness, education, advocacy and collaboration. We aim to bridge gaps in access to vital information, professional support, and culturally relevant tools for assessing and managing ADHD and its co-occurring conditions.
Bridging the Gap
Bridging gaps in access to vital information, education, awareness, diagnosis and access to resources for the assessment and management of ADHD and its co-occurring conditions.
We have partnered with V.O.I.C.E. For Neurodiversity, a 501(c)3 non-profit collaborative-based organization to develop the ADHD & Neurodiversity Collaborative Online Community that connects historically underserved and marginalized communities challenged with neurodivergence to resources, relevant information and support groups.
Removing Stigma Through Education and Awareness
Transforming lives through practical community education and culturally conscious awareness through our ADHD in the Family Tree: Understanding the Roots Campaign that includes the ADHD Unplugged: Candid Conversations podcast; and a events designed to foster community around our strengths, our successes and our willingness to embrace our differences.
About Us
What We Do
Awareness & Education
Providing science backed, evidence based and culturally relevant information about ADHD and its impact on late diagnosed and marginalized individuals and families.
Advocacy
Educating elected officials about the unique challenges faced by late diagnosed and marginalized ADHD communities. Teaching individuals how to become ADHD advocates. Collaborating with organizations to support culturally conscious ADHD research.
Partnering with Faith-Based Organizations, Building Community Support
Guided by our motto, “Different Not Broken,” The Society partners with faith-based organizations to host both virtual and in-person forums that raise awareness about ADHD, deliver science-backed education, and help break the stigma surrounding neurodivergence.
Access to Assessment & Management
We collaborate with culturally conscious ADHD specialists to provide affordable or free screenings and assessments and connect individuals with low-cost treatment options, including therapy, nutrition, supplementation, online tools, apps, medication, and coaching.
