Education

Students living with ADHD can thrive in an education environment that understands and supports them. The ADHD Australia Education Team supports students and educators with the tools and training that help them promote learning for ADHD students. Parents, family members, educators and students all have roles to play. Our goal is to promote the mutual understanding that will build a learning environment in which students with ADHD can thrive.
Employment

The unique skills of employees with ADHD can help organisations break new ground if they're understood and harnessed.

They help redesign teams and re-craft jobs and roles to better reflect skills and capabilities

Healthcare

From diagnosis and treatment to managing ADHD in daily life, Healthcare is paramount. The ADHD Australia Healthcare Team works with health providers and stakeholders to support better access to diagnosis, treatment and ADHD-informed care.

People with ADHD are five times more likely to be in jail, with catastrophic consequences for everyone. The ADHD Australia Justice Team advocates for fair treatment of people with ADHD in the justice system and provides resources for people with ADHD to get the understanding and support they need.
