Where can i pursue education that will help me support the ADHD community?

[aggravatingad7762]

I'm new here, but I thought it would be a good place to gather ideas. I have ADHD and I recently have decided to pursue a career in advocacy and support for kids with ADHD, their families, and their schools.

The world of education has changed so much since Covid and while those changes may work really well for some, I know many students will struggle to keep up. I want to provide support for teachers who want to reach out to their neuro-atypical students, for those students, and for their parents.

Considering this, I am thinking of getting a Masters in Education in instructional design or learning theory - perhaps with a focus on serious games and edutainment.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm a bit nervous as this would be a big life shift for me and any advice is welcome.

ADDCA.com has one of the most respected Coaching programs. I really enjoyed their classes. They also have one of the top Family programs, lead by author Caroline McGuire. I highly recommend looking there while you are pondering/searching. I love your vision, and the obvious energy you are bringing to this!

I have MSW and education is one of the majors. With an MSW you can do therapy too. So look into degree programs.

If your mission is from your hart, you can’t go wrong.
