Why This Workshop
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a complex medical disorder characterized by challenges in self-regulation rather than attention. It can impact various aspects of life, including education, peer relations, and overall health. Developing an organized and flexible management plan is essential for educators, parents, caregivers, and others.
