60 minutes; Facilitator’s Guide available online.

ADHD (Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is an in-depth look at a troubling phenomenon. ADHD is often the first diagnosis for any attention problem—but when are other factors at work? How often is this a misdiagnosis, made because it is so easy to pin a simple label on inattentiveness? This workshop program focuses not only on identifying the true causes of inattention, but on effective management techniques for dealing with them.
