Learn about ADHD in the UK at ADDISS conference March 30-April 1

If you live in the United Kingdom, and you or someone you love have ADHD, you know that the non-profit organization ADDISS is a peerless source of education and support. The name stands for The National Attention Deficit Disorder Information and Support Service.

ADDISS’ Ninth International Conference on ADHD: The Spirit of ADHD:
Resilience, Hope, Opportunity, Success takes place in London March 31-April 1, 2009.

I am looking forward to speaking about “You and Me and Adult ADHD: Success Strategies for Couples” at the conference as well as at a free public lecture on March 31.
