CHADD

I just wanted everyone to know that I was working on the last two posts, and my computer kept messing up, so I started over on a new one, so that is why there are two. I have a little bit of the same information on both of them, since i thought the other one was gone. Anyways, I was trying to do some research on the contributors to CHADD, because I am always wondering what is the angle behind the money that is going into these organizations. I watched too much Law and Order. However most of their money comes from legitimate medical organizations dedicated to doing research on ADHD, and helping out these children.

  1. After taking a look at the CHADD website I found some very helpful things related to this support group. I think that this support group is very beneficial to any parent/family wiht a child who has ADHD, but realized that this support group costs money. Yet the price isn't too expensive, I find a membership fee as being a barrier for some parents/families. I think that support groups should be free. But overall, I feel that this website is a very helpful resource for any person seeking information and/or help related to ADHD.

    Below are a list of other support group websites that I found:
