How did ADHD Awareness Month begin? It started with a phone call, an unexpected opportunity, and three determined ADHD advocates who helped bring National ADHD Awareness Day to the U.S. Senate.
In this special episode of ADHD Support Talk Radio, Tara McGillicuddy shares a historic recording from the very first Online ADHD Awareness Expo in 2010.
Listen as Dave Giwerc, Evelyn Polk Green, and Michele Novotni share the remarkable behind-the-scenes story of how ADHD Awareness Day became a reality, the obstacles they overcame, and why ADHD awareness, education, and self-advocacy still matter today.
