Understanding ADHD: A Must-Watch for Educators and Professionals 🧠 This October, during #ADHDawareness month, let's delve deeper into the lived experiences of children with ADHD and the challenges faced by their families. We’re excited to share this powerful video featuring Lisa, a PhD candidate, educator, and mother, who shares her journey navigating the school and mental health system with her son CJ, who was diagnosed with ADHD. This video is a vital resource for educators, mental health professionals, and anyone working with children. It offers: - A firsthand perspective on the challenges faced by families of children with ADHD and the impacts of bias and racism within early education, where Black boys are disproportionately suspended. - Insights into the importance of parental voices in the education system. - A clear understanding of the need for better support and understanding of ADHD within our schools. The video highlights the crucial need to bridge the gap between parents and providers, ensuring that the needs of children with ADHD are met with empathy, knowledge, and appropriate supports. Watch the video and find more early childhood mental health resources here: https://lnkd.in/gZ93sAZV Let's raise awareness, promote understanding, and create a more inclusive environment for children with ADHD. Share your own experiences and insights in the comments, or tag colleagues who might benefit from this valuable resource. #ADHD #ADHDAwareness #EarlyChildhoodMentalHealth #Education #MentalHealth #Neurodiversity #Inclusion #Support #Advocacy
