HADD Family Support Group for ADHD in Ireland
We're glad you logged on. We are an organisation in Ireland made up of volunteers- mainly parents of children with ADHD. We are dedicated to providing as much up-to-date information, resources and networking opportunities to parents of children with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) and the professionals who serve them.
Please note that the information you find on our web site is intended as a guide and is no substitute for professional medical/educational advice given to you personally, as each child with ADHD presents differently and as such has individual needs.
