This year’s conference includes the presentation of the inaugural AADPA Florence Levy Emerging Researcher Award.

This year’s conference also coincides with ADHD Awareness month; a whole month devoted to sharing reliable information about ADHD based on science and peer-reviewed research.
Of course, ADHD awareness is not just for the month of October. As people living with ADHD or working with those with ADHD, we have the opportunity to be leaders in our local and online communities as we shine a light on ADHD, providing trustworthy resources all year long!
