Knowledge of ADHD in Healthcare Profession

About us:

Our organization was founded in 2021 when our founder, Joely Clawson-Keeton, noticed a lack of knowledge about ADHD in the Healthcare field. After doing more research, she noticed that the Healthcare and Education system lack a good understanding of ADHD and how it affects people. The Journal of Psychiatric Research found that one out of three children with combined type ADHD will drop out of high school. We believe that if more healthcare professionals and educators had a better understanding of ADHD, we could lower that number and help individuals with ADHD thrive. Our goal is to provide resources for individuals with ADHD, or for anyone who wants to understand ADHD better. Our goal is to make a mandatory program about ADHD to educate the Healthcare and Education systems by 2025.
