Reforming Section 504 Plans for ADHD

Published: Nov. 5, 2015, 1 a.m.

Section 504 is a well-intended law, but is it working for those diagnosed with ADHD? According to a CHADD survey with nearly 700 responses, it isn't. In such situations, how does it get fixed? Who speaks on your behalf? Children and Adults with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (CHADD) (http://www.chadd.org) does! In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, we interview Ingrid Alpern, co-chair of CHADD's Public Policy Committee. She gets the hard facts about what has taken place in schools throughout the country and what is being done to resolve challenges related to ADHD.  If you have ADHD or are impacted by it but not a member of CHADD, this show will inspire you to join and support CHADD so that the ADHD community can speak with one voice. Attention Talk Radio is the leading site for self-help Internet radio shows focusing on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and attention deficit disorder (ADD), including managing symptoms of attention deficit disorder, adults with ADD, or adults who have children with ADHD. Attention Talk Radio, hosted by attention coach Jeff Copper, is designed to help adults and children (particularly those diagnosed with or impacted by attention deficit disorder or its symptoms) in life or business who are stuck, overwhelmed, or frustrated. It will help adults and children get unstuck and moving forward by helping to open their minds and pay attention to what works. Attention Talk Radio host Jeff Copper is an ADHD coach.
