ADHD – The Real Deal

February 6-25, 2025 6:30pm – 8:00pm

ADHD doesn’t just affect the person living with ADHD, it also affects those around them. As parents of kids living with ADHD, we can benefit from learning what ADHD is and how to support our kids. Dr. Duncan dispels some myths and explains how and why the ADHD brain works the way it does.

Join us to learn from Dr. Don Duncan, Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist.

Come together and watch a video presentation and stay for a facilitated conversation by our Family Peer Support Workers.
