Children and Adults with ADHD (CHADD) is a national organization of parents, educators and other professionals interested in effective treatments for individuals with ADHD. CHADD’s website (www.chadd.org) provides a wealth of information and many CRG blog readers are also aware of its monthly magazine, “Attention” (www.facebook.com/AttentionMagazine). Many states and cities across the U.S. have local CHADD chapters that provide access to resources, support, and the shared experiences of peers.
Two of CRG’s providers will give free talks soon at the Indianapolis CHADD chapter (http://www.chadd.net/template.cfm?affid=346&p=about). The meetings take place on the 2nd Tuesday of every month at the Amy Beverland Elementary School (Media Center) from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m.
CRG’s Assistive Technology Specialist, Beth Waite, MA-CCC/SLP-ATP, will give a talk called “How Everyday Technology Can Keep You Organized and Focused.” She will speak on January 14th. Come hear Beth’s practical, hands-on advice for non-techies about how to harness the full power of the technology we all have these days.
CRG’s Postsecondary Disability Specialist/ADD Coach, David R. Parker, Ph.D., will give a talk called, “ADD Coaching: Pursuing Your Passion without Losing Your Steam.” He will speak on February 11th. Come learn more about ADD coaching and whether it can help you meet some of your important goals/resolutions in 2014.
The talks are free and you do not need to be a member of CHADD to attend. For more information, contact Andy Dix (chapter coordinator) at (317) 723-3799 or e-mail: ne-indianapolis@chadd.net
