Summer Events with ADHDKC
There's something for everyone!
ADHKC’s groups have a lot of great topics to cover this June - we hope you can learn with us!
If you are able to join group events in person or online, you may be able to meet like-minded people (your tribe) who are dealing with similar issues as you in addition to hearing from experts. No one should struggle alone!
Finding our events
Our Monthly Events tab is now at the top of our Substack Home Page. You can easily learn about our various group activities there. Each group has it’s own section within that page, so look for the Parent’s Group, Adult’s Group, Women’s Group, Adolescent Group, or Special Events subpage per your interest. These are also listed below, so keep scrolling to find the group that interests you!
We’ll post new helpful articles and recordings of events on our Articles and Event Recordings page. Note: not all of our events are recorded, but if they are, they will be posted here.

Upcoming events for our parent and teen groups
Space is limited for our in person gatherings. We will save a seat for you when you sign up for the event. Please let us know if your plans change so we can open your seat to someone else!
Did you miss a meeting?
The fabulous May Parent Event from John Willson, “The Art of Failing Forward: Developing Grit,” was not recorded but SOAR has recordings of this and other presentations they give available on their site. You will need to sign in, but all their webinars are free to watch.
We have two of our recent Parent Group Meetings now available to watch online - see below.
Here’s what you can look forward to in upcoming months:
The Parents of kids with ADHD group’s June meeting will be lead by Dr. Tish Taylor, a local psychologist. She will talk about ADHD and Oppositional Defiant Disorder: Effective Responses to Challenging Behaviors. Learn more from the Parent’s Group Page:
Our Women with ADHD group is a small group that meets each month. Learn how you can join them on our Women’s Group Page:

CHADD resources
CHADD and their partners have developed TOOLS to help you teach your child important skills.
CHADD also has Toolkits (different from TOOLS above) to help you learn about ADHD. Learn about school resources, suicide prevention, diagnosis and treatment, and more!
CHADD also has two podcasts that cover many topics related to ADHD.
The ADHD 365 podcast provides expert advice, tips, and strategies for families, adults, educators, and professionals.
The All Things ADHD podcast is a learning resource program of CHADD’s National Resource Center, funded by the CDC, to disseminate expert information to improve the lives of those affected by ADHD.
