Welcome to EASTSIDE CHADD
Support and information for families and individuals living with ADHD.
Please join us at our virtual presentations.
A message from Barbara Bennett, MA, Volunteer Coordinator, Eastside CHADD:
Welcome to Eastside CHADD, a satellite of national CHADD.
CHADD is the national, evidence-based organization devoted to bring up-to-date scientific
research about ADHD to the ADHD community and to those who work with individuals with ADHD.
Its goal is to provide knowledge about effective practices in education, parenting, and
lifespan issues.
At a time when academic and problem-solving skills, along with the ability to implement them,
are key to a solid economic future, our programming will present professionals who will keep
your knowledge current about ADHD and related conditions such as learning disabilities,
anxiety, and mood disorders.
We will bring you timely information about the new diagnostic criteria used to diagnose ADHD.
In response to your requests, we plan to add programs to meet the needs of adults.
Eastside CHADD is an all volunteer community group. Please contact me to volunteer your
skills, ideas, and your expertise, whether it be for a few moments at our meetings or for
longer projects. We value all who give generously of their time to make Eastside CHADD the
place to learn about ADHD and to support those with ADHD. We thank our presenters who volunteer
their time to share their expertise at our meetings.
We invite you to join Eastside CHADD at our virtual meetings and welcome your membership
in Eastside CHADD.
