ADHD

This free online network aims to bring together WA based multidisciplinary ADHD and Mental Health professionals in a quarterly online space to discuss principles of Neuroaffirmative Practice in the intersection of mental health and ADHD care. We work together as a community to create and maintain a professionally respectful space that is inclusive of neurological and professional differences to discuss, develop, and inform professional understanding and best practice principles of service delivery within MH and ADHD care. **All new members are encouraged to please complete the planning survey available in the network resources section.**

This network aims to bring together multidisciplinary practitioners from the region with an interest in ADHD. The quarterly meetings will provide a space for networking and peer support and will feature group discussions and presentations from guest speakers on a broad range of topics.

The NSW Neurodiversity-Affirming Network brings together mental health professionals working with neurodivergent clients, particularly those who are autistic, have ADHD, or both.

Meetings are online, held quarterly, and include guest speakers, case discussions, peer learning, and resource sharing, focused on enhancing skills and understanding to better support the wellbeing of neurodivergent people.
