Summer Treatment Program for ADHD and Behavior

FOR CAREGIVERS

Summer Treatment Program for ADHD and Behavior

Kids with ADHD often get angry quickly, throw tantrums, and refuse to do things they don’t want to do. But these kids aren’t trying to be bad. ADHD can make it hard for them to do things they find difficult or boring. It also causes them to have a hard time controlling themselves when they get frustrated.

Our ADHD Summer Program is a four-week intensive summer treatment program to support children ages 5 through 10 with ADHD, social, behavioral, or learning challenges. If your family is seeking to jumpstart progress during the summer or maintain gains made during the school year, this program is designed to help meet those goals while also providing a fun experience tailored to your child’s particular needs.

Professional Event Series: ADHD in Focus

FOR CLINICIANS

Professional Event Series: ADHD in Focus

Certain behavioral signs in preschool and kindergarten could indicate that a child has ADHD – such as when they act out more than occasionally, with frequent tantrums, outbursts, or defiance. The first step to dealing with problem behavior is finding out what’s behind it.
This event will provide an overview of the behavioral onset patterns of ADHD as well as the early signs, symptoms, and treatment options for young children with suspected ADHD. Professionals will learn how to differentiate between typical development and behaviors that may be indicative of ADHD. Our clinical experts will offer evidence-based treatment recommendations with an emphasis on increasing positive behavior.
