education, assessment and support
ADHD is the most common neurodevelopmental condition, affecting both children and adults throughout their lives. Living with ADHD can bring daily challenges, and nearly everyone will have a friend, family member, or colleague with ADHD. With proper understanding, though, ADHD becomes one of the most manageable neurological conditions, as effective support and treatment can bring about profound, positive changes for those affected.
However, ADHD remains a significant factor in education and employment struggles, as well as in relationship issues, social isolation, depression, anxiety, and even suicidality. Alarmingly, up to 50% of people who are incarcerated, struggling with addiction, or experiencing homelessness may have ADHD. Ignoring the impact of ADHD carries a social and economic cost, recently estimated at around $21 billion in Australia alone.
We believe this needs to change and are committed to making that happen. By bringing together leading experts, we’re developing accessible screening tools, creating education programs for individuals and professionals on the ADHD front line, and building collaborative care pathways that offer effective, affordable support to those navigating life with ADHD.
