October is ADHD Awareness Month. ✨ ADHD is one of the most common mental health conditions affecting children and adults, yet it is often misunderstood.

It’s about improving overall health and academic success for our children. 📚 Let’s work together to ensure families have the knowledge to make informed choices and access the support they deserve. ✨ #ADHDAwarenessMonth #mentalhealthmatters
