group of parents of children with AD/HD, medical practitioners
(developmental pediatricians, psychiatrists and psychologists) and
educators (progressive school owners and SPED practitioners). The
Society aims to increase public awareness about the disorder, as well as
provide the necessary support for individuals with ADHD, as well as their parents and the teachers .. Through
the years, support groups for parents have been formed , school
caravans were conducted, parenting and teachers’ seminars were
initiated, national and regional conferences were held, and advocacy activities were undertaken to empower individuals concerned. Volunteer parents, teachers and doctors are the prime movers of this group.
