The Attention Deficit Disorder Association is the nation’s leading organization for helping adults with ADD. Their many offerings include a clinician directory, an archive of articles from clinical and popular press, audio and video tapes, and multiple conferences.

We at the ADDexecutive consider the ADDA an excellent role model for us* and an excellent resource for our readers. Go look, join up. I did!

Note: Remind me again what the difference is between the ADDexecutive’s mission and ADDA’s?

Two things: Scope and Method.

In Scope: the ADDExecutive focuses strictly on workplace issues, while ADDA covers the entirety of adult living (e.g., relationships, parenting, links to other physical and mental health issues, etc.).

In Method: reader contributions will be at the heart of the ADDexecutive, on equal footing with editorial contributions and clinical contributions. ADDA provides networking opportunities and other means for member contributions, but does not have a reader-driven online presence.
