Hello Everyone,
We are so excited to share this mini-congress invitation with you and share our colloboration efforts with ADHD Europe!
Dating back to 2020, the founders of the ADHD Women Project comprising of two member organisations of ADHD Europe (ADHD, ASC & LD Belgium AISBL and ADHS Deutschland A.V) joined forces under the EFNA #brainlifegoals funding grant. A website was built www.adhd-women.eu in English and German - more languages are currently being translated by our women tribe of volunteers. Our website is updated by volunteers with reliable information for everyone around the world.
Campaign activities continue on the webpage with personal stories. Raising awareness on social media which has grown exponentially with followers from Facebook , Twitter , Instagram ) and Linkedin. In May 2021, to continue making a difference in the lives of women with/without ADHD, Joanne Norris, Ed.D. (Honorary member of ADHD Europe), and Donnalea Barber (professional member of ADHD Europe) offered to facilitate ‘Knowing Me! Knowing You (KMKY) Peer to Peer support groups . These meetings are attended by women around the world. Since June 2021 we have been sending monthly newsletters.
In addition ADHD Europe were thrilled to start the ADHD Women subcommittee group in 2021 to continue our efforts across Europe with ADHD Europe members, to share ideas, knowledge and experiences.
During October Awareness Month our members formed working groups to shine a light on 1. ‘Why are girls missed out?’ 2. Executive & High Functioning ADHD 3. downloadable ebook about Burnout, 4. Articles, scientific papers and more… We are currently continuing these efforts to update these resources to include the knowledge and input from our members
