This informative and interactive workshop will focus on understanding your individual ADHD and discovering how your symptoms may lead to impairments in the home and workplace. A good portion of the day will be spent looking at useful strategies, tools and accommodations that may be helpful. The workshop is aimed at adults and adolescents with ADHD, their parents and families.
