Supporting people with ADHD Australia-wide
Making Australia a better place for people living with ADHD.
Welcome to ADHD Australia. We’re here to support all Australians affected by ADHD through raising awareness, advocacy, education and research initiatives. We hope to create positive systemic change for people living with ADHD by helping those that support them.
We have thousands of people in our community across the country, and with 1 in 20 Australians impacted by ADHD, those that can support someone with ADHD, can impact the lives of millions of people.
Highlights from our Global ADHD Conference
A 24-hour Global Conference, in partnership with ADHD UK, and ADHD charities around the world, broadcast the best of ADHD experts to over 96 Countries to 7000 registrants.
