According to New York Times–bestselling author Edward Hallowell, M.D., Ed.D., learning differences can actually translate into superpowers, and changing our mindset about neurodiversity opens up a world of possibilities for our kids.
Dr. Hallowell has spent more than four decades treating kids diagnosed with ADHD, dyslexia and other learning differences. Through his work, he has revolutionized a strengths-based approach to not only identifying neurodiversity, but developing and celebrating the talents embedded in these syndromes. Join us on March 2 to transform the way you think about neurodiversity, and to learn the best strategies to support the power and gifts of kids with ADHD.
