This initial meeting will be virtual so we can connect, get to know one another, and talk through our shared goals. I do plan to host in-person meetings moving forward, and this first conversation will help us decide on a centralized location and what times/days work best for everyone to attend.
It is pretty wild that this is the Capital Region’s first ADHD Awareness Coalition. We plan on raising awareness, supporting individuals and families affected by ADHD, and advocating for improved access to resources and programming in our region.
Our mission is to bring together youth, adults, parents, educators, mental health providers, medical professionals, community organizations, and allies to:
Share lived experiences
Identify gaps in services and local support
Collaborate on outreach and advocacy
Develop peer support spaces and programming throughout the Region
Promote inclusion and empowerment for those living with ADHD
