So much of the content students with ADHD receive focuses on the challenges associated with the diagnosis. At ADHDed Value, we celebrate the positive attributes of ADHD and work to support students and their families cultivate their strengths by learning how to succeed with ADHD with the mission of facilitating each person achieving their goals through ADHD strategies. ADHDed Value was founded by Kairi Bruck who was diagnosed with ADHD and dysgraphia when she was 8.
ADHDed Value has two primary objectives. 1) Assist individuals with ADHD and their families develop the structure and supports that work best for each person. 2) Provide hope that dreams are attainable. We accomplish this through providing examples of structures and supports for those with ADHD, describing ways families have successfully supported their loved ones with ADHD, offering speaking engagements and workshops, profiling successful individuals thriving with ADHD, explaining the science behind ADHD, and reviewing products that may help with ADHD symptoms.
